Job Description
Every day we get opportunities to make a positive impact on our colleagues partners customers and society. Together were pioneering the solutions of the future and unlocking the full potential of precious resources. Trusted to act on initiative we challenge conventional thinking to develop world-leading technologies that inspire progress in vital areas including energy food water and shipping.
As we push forward the innovative open spirit that fuels our 140-year-old start-up culture and rapid growth also drives our personal growth. So as we shape a more resourceful less wasteful world we build our careers too.
We create better everyday conditions for people. We do this by contributing to a more sustainable future through engineering innovation. We love what we do and were good at it. But now we want to be even better! We are looking for an . thesis student to our Materials Technology and Chemistry department R&D. So what are you going to do today
Alfa Laval is a global company with three key product areas: heat transfer separation and fluid handling. We have sales in more than 100 countries and in 2022 the order intake was about 5 500 million euro. The number of employees is about 20 000. The head office is in Lund Sweden where a major part of the research and development of plate heat exchangers reside.
The Master thesis project
Alfa Laval has developed a wide range of advanced heat transfer solutions for the transition to a cleaner energy future. However the future of clean tech such as hydrogen applications will include extremely harsh environments for the heat exchanger (e.g. high pressures) creating the need for very strong joints. Therefore there is a need for highly advanced alloys and processes in our heat exchanges.
This masters thesis dives deep into diffusion bonding a cutting-edge technique that joins materials at the atomic level without melting enabling high-performance components.
The project includes:
High temperature bonding of current and future metal alloys.
Use of high-resolution microscopy techniques to characterize bonded joints and microstructures.
Use of modelling methods to simulate bonding processes.
The project will be a mix of experimental analytical and modelling work to optimize the manufacturing process of future clean tech products subjected to very severe service conditions.
Who are you
We look for a curious and methodical chemical or mechanical engineering student with an interest in materials science who wants to contribute to a sustainable future.
