Beschreibung

TUD Dresden University of Technology, as a University of Excellence, is one of the leading and most
dynamic research institutions in the country. Founded in 1828, today it is a globally oriented,
regionally anchored top university as it focuses on the grand challenges of the 21st century. lt
develops innovative solutions for the world's most pressing issues. In research and academic
programs, the university unites the natural and engineering sciences with the humanities, social
sciences and medicine. This wide range of disciplines is a special feature, facilitating interdisciplinarity
and transfer of science to society. As a modern employer, it offers attractive working conditions to all
employees in teaching, research, technology and administration. The goal is to promote and develop
their individual abilities while empowering everyone to reach their full potential. TUD embodies a
university culture that is characterized by cosmopolitanism, mutual appreciation, thriving innovation
and active participation. For TUD diversity is an essential feature and a quality criterion of an excellent
university. Accordingly, we welcome all applicants who would like to commit themselves, their
achievements and productivity to the success of the whole institution.

At the
Faculty of Mechanical Science and Engineering, Institute of Power Engineering, the
Chair

of Imaging Techniques in Energy and Process Engineering offers a position as

Research Associate (M/F/x)

within a junior research group funded by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature
Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection

**"Radiation based imaging techniques for nuclear safety research"
**starting as soon as possible. The position is limited until December 31, 2025 with the option of
extension and entails 75 % of the full-time weekly hours. The period of employment is governed by
the Fixed Term Research Contracts Act (Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz-WissZeitVG). The position
offers the chance to obtain further academic qualification.

Tasks:
How do water and steam flow in the fuel elements of a nuclear reactor? We want to investigate
this question here in Dresden with state-of-the-art flow simulations and experiments. Within the
scope of the project, numerical simulation methods are to be further developed for this purpose. In
order to obtain the flow data required for modeling, experimental studies will be carried out using
state-of-the-art imaging measurement techniques, specifically ultrafast X-ray tomography, on a flow
test rig

The work includes:
- the planning of the experiments together with leading scientists,
- the qualification of flow measurement techniques in selected preliminary experiments,
- the analysis of X-ray image data,
- the further development of models of numerical simulations of steam-water flows,
- the performance of selected numerical studies to evaluate model performance.

Requirements:

You have a very good university degree (diploma, master's degree) in mechanical engineering,
You have knowledge in fluid mechanics as well as energy and process engineering. Preferably

- you are already well acquainted with methods of numerical flow simulation.

You are curious, have an affinity for technology, are willing to perform and communicative.

You are able to think in an interdisciplinary way, quickly familiarise yourself with new topics
and convince with a team-oriented and independent way of working.

You have practical experimental skills and abilities.
You can actively communicate with scientific partners, also in English.

We would be happy to explain your tasks within the junior research group in an interview.

TUD strives to employ more women in academia and research. We therefore expressly encourage
women to apply. The University is a certified family-friendly university and offers a Dual Career
