Technology Development & Simulation at the Center of Excellence (CoE) Battery shapes future battery technologies across all components - from the battery cell and electrical/electronic systems to the complete battery system. In addition, Technology Development consolidates all simulation scopes as well as methodological and pre-development expertise within the CoE Battery. This includes not only the development of technology projects and concepts but also the creation of methodologies for validating cell behavior and stack performance within the battery system. Become part of the team now and help shape Volkswagen's transformation into a mobility provider.
Job Responsibility:
Design, execute and analyze propagation tests under various clamping conditions in single-cell and multi-cell setups
Characterize deviations in propagation behavior between single-cell and multi-cell setups and predict multi-cell or stack behavior in relation to the system environment
Align results of propagation investigations and properties with other integration-relevant topics such as swelling, crash and aging behavior
Characterize and examine cell interlayer material concepts through material investigations
Summarize and evaluate potential emergency mechanisms for thermal propagation
