PhD+Job Opportunity in High Temperature Heat Pumps and Thermal Modelling FH Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences in Austria

University of Salzburg is advertising a 3-year fully funded PhD position on the origin of the low-voltage plateau in hard carbon anodes for Na-ion batteries . The project addresses an open question in next-generation battery research: why hard-carbon anodes show a characteristic low-voltage plateau during sodium-ion storage and what its microscopic origin is. The research combines synthesis of carbon nanostructures , structural and electrochemical characterization during Na intercalation , and D...

KU Leuven has launched a PhD vacancy within the FLEX-SMR project on dynamic modelling and control of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) for combined heat and power applications. The project aims to develop cost-optimal solutions for integrating SMRs into industrial energy systems, with a focus on operating SMRs alongside other energy assets such as electric boilers. The research will use a Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework to optimally balance electricity and heat production. This is a strong ...
