What are you going to do:

• • Over the past several years, hydrogen - electric forklift trucks and container handlers have been designed by Hyster-Yale. The architecture consist of Li-ion batteries, fuell cells, inverters and different auxiliaries which all have different in an output voltages and power ratings. In some cases multiple similar DCDC converters are placed in parallel to support the power demand.
  • At the time these systems were designed the type of components used was limited. New developments for the EV industry will likely allow for simpler and more robust designs
  • Within this assignment, different system topology and newly avaialbe solutions will be assessed on being suitable for a new system topology for the next generation forklifts.

• • Archtiecture – HV system
• Aantal uren per week / Hours per week
  • 40hours/week

What do you bring:

Knowledge of electrical high voltage systems

(optinally, experience with simulating or interpreting duty cycle data)

We are looking for a final thesis / master thesis student who can work independently or with minimum remote guidance on the assignment.

What do we offer:

• • Support and mentorship are provided as well as opportunities for job positions after this. Participation in project teams, customer visits and learning on the job are encouraged.
  • Internship allowance: € 350,= euro gross/month
