Beschreibung

We are looking for enthusiastic students to join our research team starting January 1, 2025. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in Thermal Energy Storage (TES) systems for Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) applications. The project focuses on investigating the chemical corrosion properties and thermal characteristics of thermal storage media.

Project Description: The research will primarily involve experimental work, supplemented with literature reviews and simulations as needed. Utilizing our custom-built experimental platform, you will perform a series of in-situ and ex-situ experiments to explore:

1. High-temperature electrochemical experiments: Collecting, processing, and analyzing data to understand corrosion behavior in high-temperature thermal storage environments.

2. Thermal and chemical property analysis: Using advanced instruments to analyze and distinguish the thermal properties of various thermal storage media.

3. Optimization of experimental setups: Strengthening the functionality and development of the thermal storage experimental platform, including collecting data under critical conditions.

Voraussetzungen

We are looking for candidates with:

1. A background in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering.

2. Experience with electrochemical workstations or battery-related experiments.

3. Strong hands-on skills, patience, and a problem-solving mindset.

4. Proficient in data collection and visualization, with logical and innovative thinking, and the ability to integrate solutions effectively.

 

What we offer:

1. Access to state-of-the-art experimental equipment.

2. Comprehensive scientific guidance throughout your project.

3. A friendly and collaborative working environment focused on high productivity.

4. Opportunities for international collaboration and engagement with a diverse research team.
