Research Associate in Electrical Drives for Liquid Hydrogen in Aerospace

2 months ago


Manchester, United Kingdom The University of Manchester Full time

The University invites applications for the above post which is tenable for 38 months in the first instance. 

This research associate post is based in the Power and Energy Division within the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The Power and Energy Division specialises in high voltage technologies, energy networks, power conversion/electrical drives and power electronics and is the largest UK academic group in this area with a long-standing international reputation for power engineering.

This project (HyFIVE) is funded by GKN Aerospace / INNOVATE (ATI). HyFIVE is a strategic industrial research programme to develop and test a liquid-hydrogen (LH2) fuel system, led by a UK based consortium of major aerospace suppliers. HyFIVE will demonstrate a first-of-kind Liquid Hydrogen (LH2) aerospace fuel system, building on the UK's existing expertise in aerospace fuel systems and cryogenic research.

The consortium partners aspire to develop a liquid hydrogen fuel distribution and storage system to make the UK a global leader in hydrogen fuel systems technology. GKN Aerospace within HyFIVE will lead the cryogenic pump motor technology as a key system component within the LH2 fuel distribution and delivery system. This work stream is a collaborative project with the University of Manchester and the University of Bath. The team at Manchester will be responsible for developing novel cryogenic electrical drive technologies for the primary LH2 fuel distribution pumps. The focus will be on high-performance sealless motor drive technologies capable of pumping cryogenic fluids. The motor technology will be fault-tolerant using the latest embedded digital sensors and integrated with the platform health management system.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated research assistant looking for a challenging opportunity in the electrification of aerospace and who can communicate and work collaboratively with the academic and industrial partners in this large consortium project. The applicant will have a PhD (or equivalent) in a relevant degree (or about to submit) and/or relevant equivalent experience. Relevant experience in the analysis and design of electrical machines and drives is essential.

The University of Manchester values a diverse workforce and welcomes applications from all sections of the community. The School is committed to Athena SWAN principles to promote women in science.
