We offer the following research topic

Thesis - HV System Integration, aspects for the (geometrical) vehicle integration 

Master Thesis

HV systems of battery electric or fuel cell electric vehicles combine components with comparable properties or functions e.g., HV battery, inverter, motor, onboard charger, charge port, DC/DC converter, water/air heaters, AC compressors. Their arrangement in the vehicle and their package locations vary significantly between available products on the market.

WHAT WE OFFER YOU:

Analyze the geometrical integration of HV systems in existing vehicles. Outline common aspects and significant dependencies. 

Aspects and dependencies include

• General vehicle architecture and the component package
• HV system/electric powertrain modularity and flexibility 
• Crash safety and HV safety
• Manufacturability and serviceability 
• Cost and weight 

WHAT WE LOOK FOR:

• Enthusiasm for cars
• Cross-disciplinary/complete vehicle thinking 
• Communication skills in German and English 
• Enjoy working in an international team 
• Familiar with CATIA V5 beneficial

WHICH STUDY TRACKS WE PREFER:

• Mechanical engineering
• Electrical engineering
• Automotive engineering
• Physics

The successful completion of the thesis is remunerated with a one-time fee of EUR €3,300.00 before tax.
