Thesis - MEGA Watt Charging simulation

Master Thesis

Simulation, analysis, and optimization of high-power vehicle charging system. The charging system includes the vehicle, charging station and grid.

By simulating and analysing different scenarios, we can optimize the charging system to ensure it meets the needs of EV users while minimizing the impact on the grid. Ultimately, the goal is to develop a high-power vehicle charging system that is efficient, reliable, and sustainable, supporting the widespread adoption of electric vehicles.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES:

Investigation of different converter technologies and grid models
Setup of a model of the high voltage system with all relevant components
Running the simulation with different parameters of the relevant system components
Documentation and interpretation of the results of the different simulation runs
Compare the simulation results with available measurements of the existing system
All findings will be documented into a workflow and processes

YOUR PROFILE:

Ongoing studies in the fields of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering or similar
Basic knowledge of simulation and circuit simulation tools (e.g. MATLAB, Simulink, LTspice)
Knowledge in electro-technics and electronic circuits
Team spirit and strong problem-solving skills
Demanding tasks and opportunity to working independently
Goal-oriented working style
Good language skills in English necessary and in German beneficial
