We offer the following research topic

Thesis - EDU 3D CFD Simulation: - Simulation Methodology Comparison 

Master Thesis

Along with increasing complexity and demands of modern vehicles, further development and research of powertrain components like Electric Drivetrain Units are becoming more and more challenging and complex. To support this development simulation-based methodologies and functional modelling methods are utilized.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES:

• CAD cleaning/preparation of Electric Drivetrain Unit
• CFD Meshing and Model Build-Up
• Assessment of oil flow and thermal aspects of given design by means of 
• various available software programs 3D CFD CHT and 3D SPH methods
• Comparison of the different approaches against measurements
• Highlighting benefits and shortcomings 
• Documentation of the work and presentation to the team members

YOUR PROFILE:

• You are interested in EDU development and vehicle powertrains
• You are interested in electrothermal analysis by means of numerical modelling and simulation
• Basic knowledge in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics and 3D CFD simulation methods. (appreciated)
• Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Physics, or similar field
   

WE OFFER:

• You can write your thesis independently and receive professional guidance and support from our experienced employees.            
• You will have the opportunity to exchange ideas with experts in the company and benefit from their expertise.
