Job Description

The polymer electrolyte fuel cell is the most promising chemical energy converter for the electrification of heavy-duty transportation. A current challenge is to select reliable and cost effective materials such that the polymer electrolyte fuel cell achieves the required energy density, lifetime as well as performance. For this goal, it is crucial to identify the gas transport mechanisms and better understand their physical dependencies. One of the components in the fuel cell is the gas diffusion layer, whose gas transport resistance contributes significantly to the power losses.
  • The aim of your Master thesis is to break down the behavior and to show its physical dependencies.
  • For this purpose, you will calibrate an existing measurement method for determining permeability, determine the measurement accuracy of the method and test selected materials.
  • Last but not least, you will investigate how these materials behave under mechanical load and changed temperature.
Qualifications
  • Education: Master studies in the field of Natural Science, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering or comparable
  • Personality and Working Practice: an independent and motivated person
  • Enthusiasm: preference for experimental work with simulative support
  • Languages: good in German and English
Additional Information

Start: according to prior agreement

Duration: 6 months

Requirement for this thesis is the enrollment at university. Please attach your CV, transcript of records, examination regulations and if indicated a valid work and residence permit.

Diversity and inclusion are not just trends for us but are firmly anchored in our corporate culture. Therefore, we welcome all applications, regardless of gender, age, disability, religion, ethnic origin or sexual identity.
