Master Thesis in Development of a 2D Simulative Model for the Optimization of a Two-Phase Flow Cooling System

• Full-time

At Bosch, we shape the future by inventing high-quality technologies and services that spark enthusiasm and enrich people’s lives. Our promise to our associates is rock-solid: we grow together, we enjoy our work, and we inspire each other. Join in and feel the difference.

The Robert Bosch GmbH is looking forward to your application!

With the increasing power density of automotive electronics, the development of effective cooling systems is a necessity. One promising solution is to integrate the advantages of two-phase flow in a meandering geometrical structure. The aim of this thesis is to model a two-phase cooling system with 2D simulations and perform a sensitivity analysis of geometrical and operational parameters.

• During your master thesis, you will review experimental and simulative data on the flow dynamics and fluctuations of the two-phase flow cooling system.
• Based on it, you will simulate a 2D simplified flow of the two-phase cooling device using ANSYS or OpenFOAM.
• The simulation will be validated, and a mesh sensitivity analysis will be conducted.
• Subsequently, you will perform a sensitivity analysis by varying selected parameters.

Minimum Requirements:

• Education: Master studies in Computational Science, Computational Mechanics, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace, Mathematics, or a comparable field.
• Experience and Knowledge: Very good knowledge of fluid dynamics and solid simulation background in OpenFOAM and/or ANSYS; strong programming skills in Python and/or MATLAB, C/C++; knowledge of heat transfer mechanisms is an advantage.
• Personality and Working Practice: Highly motivated, result-oriented, responsible, and a committed team player with a self-sufficient working style.
• Languages: Fluent in English; German language skills are a plus.

Start: According to prior agreement
Duration: 6 months

Requirement: Enrollment at university. Please attach your CV, transcript of records, examination regulations, and if applicable, a valid work and residence permit.

Diversity and inclusion are integral to our corporate culture. We welcome all applications regardless of gender, age, disability, religion, ethnic origin, or sexual identity.
