Job Title: PhD on Computational Modelling of Porous Materials for Water Electrolyzers
Hiring Company: The Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) is seeking a motivated and creative PhD candidate to join our team to develop next-generation porous transport layers (PTLs) and microporous layers (MPLs) for Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyzers (PEMWEs). The project will focus on building a multi-scale computational model to capture the complex transport of gases, liquids, and charges in these porous structures, including the complex interfaces between them. Insights from the model will directly guide the manufacturing and optimization of advanced PTL/MPL architectures, with the goal of improving efficiency, durability, and reducing precious-metal requirements.
