O delovnem mestu

Inženir/inženirka (za toplotne sisteme) bo del oddelka za fiziko in simulacije letenja in se bo pridružil naši hitro rastoči ekipi. Kot član naše projektantske organizacije (DO) boste imeli ključno vlogo pri načrtovanju, analizi in optimizaciji ključnih sistemov, nameščenih na naših letalih.

Kakšne bodo tvoje naloge?

• Oblikovanje in razvoj širokega nabora sistemov za toplotno upravljanje (TMS) (konvencionalni/električni hladilni sistemi pogonskih sklopov (P-CS), sistemi za toplotno upravljanje baterij (BTMS), pogonski sklopi na vodik in gorivne celice, sistemi za nadzor okolja (ECS) in klimatske naprave (A/C) itd.) od konceptualne zasnove do faze integracije in začetka uporabe.

• Aktivno sodelovanje pri širokem spektru aplikacij in razvoju letal, kot so konvencionalna, hibridna in električna letala, eksperimentalni prototipi in serijska proizvodnja za letala s fiksnimi krili in letala VTOL.

• Izvajanje in uporaba naprednih orodij za toplotno simulacijo (0D - CFD) (z uporabo komercialne programske opreme ter interno razvitih kod in algoritmov) za izvajanje analiz, ki spodbujajo načrtovanje in potrjevanje TMS.

• Nadzor nad razvojem in integracijo 3D modelov CAD sistema in njegovih sestavnih delov.

• Sodelovanje s testnimi ekipami (zemeljski in letalski testi) pri načrtovanju in izvajanju testnih dejavnosti za potrditev zasnove in preverjanje delovanja različnih sistemov TMS.

• Priprava podrobne tehnične dokumentacije (rezultati analiz in simulacij, postopki, načrt testiranja/poročila, projektni izdelki itd.).

• Tesno sodelovanje z drugimi oddelki za vključitev toplotnih rešitev v celotno zasnovo zrakoplova. obravnavanje toplotnih izzivov v različnih fazah razvoja projektov.
