The HyUSE consortium is a public-private partnership comprising 8 universities, 5 universities of applied sciences (HBO), 3 research institutes, and 14 industrial partners. A good balance between fundamental R&D activities and applied research is realized by including research institutes and industrial partners in the execution of the work plan. The industrial involvement guarantees focus on relevant use cases.
The consortium combines a strong mix of the required knowledge and expertise on technologies, modelling capabilities, tools, and experimental facilities. There already exists a high-quality, national ecosystem for testing and validation; the various facilities complement each other and enable research and development from (micro-)component towards system level.
The PhD positions at TU/e will focus on the application of H2 in Internal Combustion Engines [PhD1] and on the modeling of H2 combustion and NOx formation [PhD2].
