Internal Research Fellow PostDoc in Power Management for Space Applications
2018-10-24 11:27:41| Space-careers.com Jobs RSS
Research Fellowship Opportunity in the Directorate of Technology, Engineering and Quality. ESA is an equal opportunity employer, committed to achieving diversity within the workforce and creating an inclusive working environment. Applications from women are encouraged. Post Internal Research Fellow PostDoc in Power Management for Space Applications This post is classified F2 on the Coordinated Organisations salary scale. Location ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands Our team and mission The Power Systems, EMC and Space Environment Division is responsible for all aspects of power systems required for ESA spacecraft and payloads. The Divisions activities cover power generation, power management, electromagnetic compatibility, energy storage and space weather. The Power Management Section provides specialist support in the domain of power management and distribution to current ESA missions and development projects. The Section is also responsible for ESA RD activities in its competence domain, working on internal activities as well as collaborating with industry and academia throughout Europe developing future power management technologies. The work of the Section is supported by the Power Conversion Lab Test Facility on site at ESTEC. The Section performs testing and prototyping in the Power and High Voltage Laboratories to support projects and internal andor external RD activities, to promote new concepts and to serve didactical purposes knowledge and education. In the recent past, the power management domain has been going through important evolutions due to the generalization of digital control and the disruption of new semiconductor technologies based on GaN and SiC. The Section strives to spin in all those new technologies into space applications in order to improve the performance and reliability of power units. Fields of activitiesresearch Power electronics is a vast field with various research fields. Power applications in space systems particularly deal with High efficiency DCDC conversion topologies Control techniques Reliability Failure detection and failure isolation Thermal management of power losses. Nowadays, the technology trends point at higher switching frequencies, GaN and SiC devices and enhanced functionality and performance thanks to the use of digital control. The combination of those techniques opens the door to many research topics that could improve the performance of space power electronics and the selected candidate will carry out their fellowship in one of these domains.
