IMT 14-2024 Master Thesis: Numerical modelling of high-efficient regenerative elastocaloric cooling based on superelastic shape memory alloys

Job description In Germany, refrigeration accounts for 14% of electricity consumption. This proportion is expected to increase steadily in the future. Innovations in cooling technology can therefore make an important contribution to climate and environmental protection. Elastocaloric cooling is an emerging solid-state cooling technology with the...

Job description In Germany, refrigeration accounts for 14% of electricity consumption. Cooling on a small scale, as it is required, e.g., in electronic chips, lab-on-chip systems, chemical and biological analysis, is often performed by miniaturization-compatible thermoelectric cooling, which is however rather in-efficient. The search for...

Job description The Institute for Microstructure Technology (IMT) develops micro- and nano-actuators for photonics applications by using smart materials. This class of material includes shape memory alloys (SMA) which exhibit several functional properties at the nanoscale. This enables the development of novel bi-stable actuators on the micro- and...

Job description Cooling structures like buildings and vehicles has become an essential need in our modern world. Traditional compression-based systems, such as air conditioners, are energy-intensive, rely heavily on electricity, and frequently utilize coolants that harm the ozone or significantly contribute to the greenhouse effect. In the summer of...

Job description Pharmaceutical research increasingly depends on microfluidics-based advanced in-vitro models (AIM) based on sophisticated cultures of cells and cell aggregates for pre-clinical testing. Since they can use human cells, AIM are potentially more accurate than animal models. Their introduction is also driven by the recognised need to reduce...

Job description ADEPT is a portable based manipulation platform, for the positioning and of micro meter sized , such as bacteria or micro beads. The system controls the amplitude, phase and frequency of the voltage signal applied to a circular array of up to six symmetrically arranged and independently controllable micro-electrodes (in a microfluidic...

Job description Tools for bioanalytical applications include enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and biosensor measurements. They enable heterogeneous assays for the detection of biomolecules in a wide range of applications, such as the detection of disease markers in blood or contaminants in food or environmental samples. The assays are mostly...

Job description Major economies are adopting laws to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
