Zurich University of Applied Sciences / Institute of Computational Physics

The Institute of Computational Physics (ICP) at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) has long-standing experience in the development of computational models on several length scales, from the porous microstructure of electrodes to large-scale commercial stacks of electrochemical cells, based on various numerical solution techniques such as Pore Network Simulation, Monte Carlo Methods, Finite Element Methods, Finite Volume Methods, etc. This unique expertise has previously enabled ZHAW to collaborate with several industrial partners in the development of new fuel cell models, models of photoelectrochemical cells for hydrogen production, and catalysis reactions for chemical engineering of synthetic fuels. Moreover, different redox flow battery models have been created in collaboration with industry and academia.

Job description
To support our team, we are looking for a Research Associate for the Mathematical Modelling and Simulation of Fuel Cells (the position is limited to two years). Mathematical models are used for the design and analysis of efficient, durable, and low-emission energy converters. At the ICP, we develop numerical models of electrochemical energy devices such as proton exchange membrane fuel cells for transport applications or redox flow batteries for the stationary storage of renewable electricity.
Your role
The scope of duties of the position includes the cooperation in a research project, in particular a European project with an international consortium composed of academic and industrial partners:

Mathematical modelling of proton exchange membrane fuel cells for the decarbonisation of heavy-duty vehicles
Model implementation and numerical simulation
Preparation of parameter studies, model validation, analysis and evaluation of measurement data
Development of graphical user interfaces for dissemination of models to industry

Your profile
You have a degree in physics, mathematics or engineering. A good understanding of physics is required to model material properties and transport of mass, momentum, charge, and heat. Experience in the numerical solution of differential equations is needed. Previous knowledge of electrochemistry is a highly-valued skill. Programming skills in a common (scientific) programming language for numerical simulation are advantageous. In addition, you are highly self-motivated, proactive, flexible and enjoy a result-oriented way of working. Professional fluency in English is required, knowledge of German is not indispensable, but may prove useful.
