A Snapshot of Your Day
In the course of the energy transition, the optimization of high-voltage cable connections is of critical importance. Traditional calculation methods tend to overestimate eddy current losses, leading to an over-dimensioning of cable systems. More precise calculations using FEM can help reduce cable cross-sections, thereby saving costs and resources. This aligns with Siemens Energy's commitment to sustainability.
This bachelor's / master's thesis aims to conduct a detailed comparison between the calculation method according to IEC 60287 and the Finite Element Method (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics to analyze eddy current losses in high voltage cables.
How You’ll Make an Impact
- Carrying out literature research on the topic
- Creation of cable models according to IEC 60287
- Modelling of the cables using FEM with COMSOL Multiphysics
- Comparison of the calculation results and performance of a parameter study
- Documentation of the process and the models in the final report
What You Bring
- Knowledge in electrical engineering and heat transfer
- Experience with FEM calculation tools, preferably COMSOL Multiphysics
- Experience with calculation tools such as Matlab or Python
- Ability to present calculation results in report form
- Personally, you are characterized by a high willingness to learn and a quick grasp of new concepts
