Airbus Defence and Space GmbH
Ottobrunn, Munich, Germany
Experimental aerodynamics and fluid dynamics
Data analysis and programming
Statistical modeling
The goal of this thesis is to quantify how ice builds up and sheds from propellers up to 300 mm in length under varying environmental conditions and to translate these findings into a predictive icing model
Job Summary
The goal of this thesis is to quantify how ice builds up and sheds from propellers up to 300 mm in length under varying environmental conditions and to translate these findings into a predictive icing model.
You will conduct extensive experiments in our icing wind tunnel (IWT) facility and develop a data-driven model to predict the evolution of icing.
You will gain invaluable industry exposure at the forefront of aerospace innovation, guided by experienced Airbus researchers and data scientists.
