The Paul Scherrer Institute PSI is the largest research institute for natural and engineering sciences within Switzerland. We perform cutting-edge research in the fields of future technologies, energy and climate, health innovation and fundamentals of nature. By performing fundamental and applied research, we work on sustainable solutions for major challenges facing society, science and economy. PSI is committed to the training of future generations. Therefore, about one quarter of our staff are post-docs, post-graduates or apprentices. Altogether, PSI employs 2300 people.

For the System Behaviour Group of the Laboratory for Reactor Physics and Thermal-Hydraulics (LRT) we are looking for a

Postdoctoral Fellow for thermal-hydraulics modelling and safety aspects of non-electric nuclear energy production (SANE project)

Your tasks
You will collaborate with European research project partners to plan and conduct thermal-hydraulics (TH) analyses for Small Modular nuclear Reactors (SMRs). In particular, this will include development of system TH models for a prototype design of a district heating SMR. In collaboration with colleagues and potential end users of non-electric nuclear energy production, you will participate in identifying and assessing the safety aspects relating to non-electric uses of nuclear energy. You will publish and present your research results in the form of peer-reviewed articles, conference papers and technical reports.
