Electric Machine Design - Automotive & Motorsport - Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Technology - Staffordshire - £30-50k (Dependent on experince)
+Interpretation of machine requirements in collaboration with systems, hardware and mechanical engineers to generate detailed formal specifications.
+ Conceptual design from first principals applied to permanent magnet, reluctance and induction machine types.
+ Progressing machine designs from ideas to prototypes with the development of detailed models and supporting engineering documentation, through to participating in prototype build, testing and validation.
+ Generation and execution of machine specific test plans, engineering documentations and failure investigation reports.
+ Supervising technical support staff during machine assembly and test. Generation and formal review of technical documentation from the design process. Participation in FMEA, HAZOP and other similar review techniques.
Skills:
+ Experience in designing and developing high performance brushless rotating electrical machines, typically including permanent magnet, reluctance and induction machine types.
+ Experienced and familiar with using electromagnetic FEA tools (static and transient with motion solvers) together with other machine design tools such as SPEED, MotorCAD and mechanical CAD.
+ Understanding and experience of analysing / modelling loss mechanisms within rotating electrical machines. Transforming the loss mechanisms into thermal models to understand the thermal behaviour of a design under transient and steady state operational conditions.
