Innovation in supercritical CO2 Power Generation Systems

The Institute of Nuclear Technology and Energy Systems (IKE) is glad to announce its partnership in the project "Innovation in supercritical CO2 Power Generation Systems (ISOP)". Within the project, three research lines of the will be hosted by the IKE:

• Fundamental study of pseudo-condensation of sCO2.
• Numerical investigation of mixing process in headers of sCO2 heat exchangers.
• Additive Manufacturing technologies for heat exchangers applications in sCO2 power systems

Hence, three research positions are available under the frame of the "Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellows (MSCA-DN and MSCA-COFUND)".

Feel free to check further information about the positions in the links below and keep in mind the deadline for applications on 31.05.23.

• Develop advanced models and design tools that enable the optimal integration of sCO2 power systems components for various thermal energy sources and end use applications.
• Develop accurate prediction tools for the simulation of transient operation of sCO2 power cycles and investigate innovative concepts of control and optimisation of operation.
• Develop innovative methods to enhance aerodynamic and mechanical performance, reliability, and operability of key system components.
• Develop advanced modelling and experimental methods that enable selection and development of materials, coatings and manufacturing techniques.
