(Graduation)Internships

• Developing modular battery system
Zenoro has taken the initiative to introduce a modular battery system to the market. This system is intended for the maritime sector, which deals with heavy loads and fast charging speeds. This development is essential due to the changing dynamics within the superyacht market, driven by the environmental impact of diesel engines. Currently, the design has been analyzed for the suitability of an appropriate insulation material and the presence of thermal bridges. This analysis has been simulated, and based on that, recommendations have been made, but further attention needs to be paid to detailing the thermal and fire safety setup of the current and future concept designs. Additionally, earlier concept designs need to be detailed and incorporated into the current concept design.

• Creating a technical-business plan for a new engine
Conduct preliminary research into the rules and regulations for testing the H2 combustion engine. We are currently testing combustion engines and powered aggregates up to 800 mkW. During this assignment, you will work closely with the R&D team in Eindhoven (online is possible) and the operational team in Ravenstein. Do you enjoy translating rules and regulations into practical solutions? Then this assignment might be for you.

• Remote monitoring
Our engines are going online! This assignment involves researching the latest developments in IoT. On one hand, this will be a paper study on the possibilities of sending data over the internet with a modem using various connections and hardware. On the other hand, Proof of Concept hardware must also be created for practical testing.

• Electric vehicle control unit
This assignment is a study on possible upgrades to the Vehicle Control Unit of NPS Driven. The control unit deserves an upgrade, and for this, it must be determined what the new specifications will be. Then, it must be determined how and with what architecture those specifications can be met. After establishing the architecture, a Proof of Concept board will be built to test whether the specifications can be met.
