Internship in Circuit Breaker Research 80 - 100% (f/m/d)

Description

The design of high voltage (HV) devices, such as gas circuit breakers (CB), requires – among others –simulations and experiments for verification of insulation and switching performance. Additionally, the research activities in the area of gas circuit breakers are enhanced by various computer-aided-engineering tools. The aim of the internship is to contribute in the preparation of the test setup, perform simulations, as well as experimental data post-processing and analysis. The superior goal is the achievement of high-end quality of the product. The duration of the internship is 6 to 12 months.

Your responsibilities:

• Working in a project for pre-product development

• CAD support for prototyping

• Simulations (electric fields, mechanical stresses, thermal behavior etc)

• Preparation and evaluation of experiments

Your background:

• Student in the field of electrical or mechanical engineering

• Knowledge in CAD tools e.g. Creo or similar is of advantage

• Experience with simulation tools e.g. COMSOL or ANSYS Fluent is considered an asset

• Team player and well organized

• Creative and can work autonomous

• Laboratory and experimental experience are of advantage
