Are you ready to take your research career to the next level? Are you interested in advancing environmentally friendly hydropower technology having a strong competence in electric machinery and electromagnetics? In our new research center for hydropower (), (IEL) at NTNU offers an exciting 3-year postdoctoral position that gives you the opportunity to develop a strong profile as a researcher. You will also gain valuable experience that might be relevant to your future career. The purpose of a postdoctoral position is for the employee to build up a researcher profile and competence that qualifies the person to apply for a position as associate professor. The position may also provide other competence with relevance for the postdoctoral fellow's further career. Become part of our research group (EME) at IEL and take the next step in your career with us, where you'll be part of an open, inclusive, and collaborative working environment.
Our working environment is characterized by its friendly and supportive atmosphere, with regular gatherings such as professional meetings within the research group, weekly research colloquia, shared lunches, and “Friday coffee” sessions to conclude the week. These formal and informal gatherings provide opportunities to exchange ideas, celebrate milestones, and strengthen connections.
Your immediate Line Manager will be the Head of Department.
FME RenewHydro
stands for Centre for Environment-friendly Energy Research and FME RenewHydro is a new research center for environmentally friendly energy developing hydropower to be more flexible and contributing to more sustainable renewable energy. With increased cooperation and new knowledge in technology, markets, environment and society, the research center RenewHydro will work to reach national energy, climate and nature targets.
In RenewHydro, researchers in the fields of technology, biology, economics, society and climate will collaborate with experts from the hydropower industry and public administration to solve key challenges in the energy field, develop solutions for a low-emission society and strengthen the business community's ability to innovate.
In addition to technology for the hydropower plants themselves, the researchers will look at, among other things, security of supply, how climate effects change hydropower, how the power can and will develop, and how hydropower can take into account the environment in rivers and reservoirs in the form of nature-based solutions.
We face major challenges in the future. Climate change will affect the whole society, including hydropower and nature. In RenewHydro, we will therefore focus much more on the major connections with biological diversity, sustainability and land use.
NTNU will lead the center and the main research partners are the Norwegian School of Business NHH, the Norwegian Institute for Natural Research - NINA and SINTEF Energi. Centre duration is from 2025 till end of 2032. See for more information.
About the project
Hydropower machines in Norway has traditionally been designed and operated as base load suppliers. New operating schemes in different type of power markets, makes the loading of the machines different from the past. The operation is more intermittent and closer to design capabilities combined with a goal to reduce maintenance and operational costs.
Thus cheap, precise and early detection of faults becomes more important. The research is in-part a continuation of on-going research on fault detection and identification using electromagnetic signatures. Through previous research efforts, several mechanical and electrical failures in the rotor have been detected. A detector system with signal processing software is under development and testing. The research is on the international forefront.
In the continued research effort, other mechanical and electrical faults are targeted. This includes stator faults such as stator winding short circuits. The postdoc research fellow is expected to be able to utilize FEM numerical models combined with signal processing and pattern recognition to identify targeted faults. The research uses laboratory and field (power station) testing extensively.
As mentioned above, you will be a part of the research group (EME) at IEL, where you are expected to take an active role in the group and participate in activities such as colloquia and contribute to, among other things, teaching, supervision, and mentoring of master students.
The main supervisor will be Professor (IEL). Co-supervisor will be Dr. Hossein Ehya (AIMSES).
