Thesis Work on Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations for Deep Mine Applications

At ABB, we help industries outrun - leaner and cleaner. Here, progress is an expectation - for you, your team, and the world. As a global market leader, we’ll give you what you need to make it happen. It won’t always be easy, growing takes grit. But at ABB, you’ll never run alone. Run what runs the world. This Position reports to: R&D Team Lead Your role and responsibilities Mine hoists are the most critical production unit in the underground mines. Payloads of ~70tons can be hoisted with 18m/s from ~1500m below surface. In the future mining high payload solutions are planned to hoist from >2000m. This thesis will address next generation mine hoists, with the goal to reduce energy usage and reduce the environmental impact.…
