Lead Thermal Systems and CFD Engineer | Leitender Ingenieur Thermik und CFD

Providing expertise in thermal analysis and thermal management in aerospace, EV automotive, energy, biomedical and biotech. Cooling system design, thermal energy storage design, human organ cryo-preservation solutions, thermal analysis including CFD, CHT, 1D, latent heat, hand calculations. Notable clients include Aerospace Lilium and Biotech X-therma.

Thermal strategy and approach setting, thermal requirements capturing and validation support, propulsion system cooling development and aerothermal integration of propulsion electric motor and propulsion vectoring systems. PVS thermal management achieved with air cooling and without additional active components resulting in weight reduction and increased reliability. Conceptual studies and trade-offs for electric engine cooling concept, technical go-to person for propulsion vectoring system thermals.

Increased the team from 2 to 10 people. Lead 1D and CFD activities including method development and validation. Introduced advanced CFD modelling for powertrain and battery thermal management, multi-phase flows in filling and air entrapment issues. Organizing and distributing work according to Agile methodology, reviewing work from colleagues spread across multiple projects. People development, business continuity and process development. Coordinated and managed expectations from internal and external stakeholders including Rimac Nevera, Porsche, Ferrari, AMG, ARB, Hyundai, Koenigsegg.
