Thesis Rapid Gas Decompression Testing Up To 1000 Bar

Job description

Company Description At Bosch, we shape the future by inventing high-quality technologies and services that spark enthusiasm and enrich people’s lives. Our promise to our associates is rock-solid: we grow together, we enjoy our work, and we inspire each other. Join in and feel the difference. The Robert Bosch GmbH is looking forward to your application! Job Description: Hydrogen's growing importance as a sustainable energy carrier highlights critical challenges in storage, particularly the behavior of elastomer seals in high-pressure systems. Due to hydrogen's small molecular size, these seals (e.g., O-rings) are highly susceptible to Rapid Gas Decompression (RGD) failures following pressure drops (≥ 100 bar). - During your thesis you will develop, implement and validate a custom high-pressure test rig. This involves bringing a custom test rig to full operational capability, specifically designed for operation up to 1000 bar. This rig is configured to investigate the deformation behavior of elastomeric sealing materials under RGD conditions. - You will collaborate by the implementation and adaptation of the electronic test rig control. - Experimental data acquisition and analysis al...
