hela Sverige PhD Student position in Hydropower In Sweden, most of the large
turbines were built between 1940s and 1970s, therefore an important period of
renovation has started. The refurbishment has to be done in conjunction with
state of the art in turbine technology to obtain the best availability,
reliability and efficiency. To this purpose, the department of Applied Physics
and Mechanical Engineering, Luleå University of Technology (LTU), is working
actively in the dynamic characterization of full-scale hydropower systems in
collaboration with Vattenfall, Alstom and GE Hydro. The division of Fluid
Mechanics, part of the Department of Applied Physics and Mechanical Engineering,
has now a position open for a new PhD student. The project is interdisciplinary
and encompasses the fields of hydraulic, power generation, tribology and
rotor-dynamic. The student will work in an exiting and growing environment using
the latest techniques within the previous mentioned area in collaboration with
other divisions at LTU (Machine Elements and Solid Mechanics) and with the
possibility to develop contacts world-wide within as well industry as academy.
Project description: The work will essentially be experimental and
comprise the measurements of several parameters and their analysis on a
full-scale hydropower machine at Porjus, Sweden, to characterize its dynamic in
order to develop rotor-dynamic models to increase availability and reliability.
Qualifications: Specialization in Energy or Hydropower is a merit,
