Offer Description Scientific context of the study:
The LIST researchers have been working for many years on the definition and implementation of pyroelectric materials capable of producing electrical energy when subjected to thermal potential variations. Their expertise has recently been recognized through a publication in the journal NATURE. This article demonstrates, for the first time worldwide, the experimental possibility of energy production in the Joule domain. This discovery is groundbreaking and opens up brand new development prospects for this technology, which was previously limited to low-power electronic applications (e.g., sensors).
The EFT team has been working for several years (through the SOLINOV project) on energy efficiency, particularly on the development and optimization of self-regulating and innovative Photovoltaic Thermal (PVT) solar panels that simultaneously produce electricity and heat. In current scenarios of using these PVT panels, a significant amount of heat generated during the summer is lost.
The collaboration between the two research laboratories will allow studying and developing an innovative concept for integrating a pyroelectric component into a photovoltaic/thermal solar system. This intelligent coupling will make it possible to harness previously lost thermal energy and create a brand new renewable energy generation system.
Activities: Conduct a preliminary bibliographic study (PVT systems, pyroelectric materials).
Propose integration configurations for a pyroelectric component in a PVT system.
Perform an energy static study to select preferred integration concepts and carry out initial sizing of the installation.
Conduct thermal and electrical characterization of the selected pyroelectric material for the study.
Contribute to the development of the test bench and laboratory prototype, and carry out an experimental study on the integration of the pyroelectric component.
Model/simulate thermofluid exchanges using finite element or volume simulation software, and optimize integration architectures and geometric configurations of the pyroelectric component.
Modify the existing test bench to test the new configurations obtained through simulation, and compare the numerical and experimental results.
Promote the work done by presenting at international conferences and publishing scientific papers in renowned international journals.
During the respective stays at IMT Nord Europe and LIST, teaching involvement will be possible, including conducting tutorials and practical exercises.
Candidate profile (Prerequisites/Degree): Engineering degree or a Master's degree with a strong focus on energy, thermodynamics, or materials science.
Proficiency in finite volume or finite element modeling (Fluent, StarCCM+, Comsol, etc.) would be a plus.
Excellent analytical and synthesis skills, with a critical mindset.
Proficient in scientific communication (written/oral).
An excellent English level is required for this international collaboration.
The candidate will have to demonstrate a real team spirit, as they will have a predominant role in the good continuity of the project between two research teams located in two different countries.
Abilities: Scientific rigor and writing quality.
Communication and teamwork skills.
Organized, rigorous, autonomous, and responsive.
A good level of English is necessary for international collaboration.
Skills: Energetic Modeling and optimization.
Mastery of one or more system modeling software: Fluent, StarCCM+, Comsol, etc.
Electric measurements.
Python programming.
Knowledge: Recognized scientific and technical knowledge in the field of Energetics.
Knowledge in modeling, simulation, and control of complex systems.
