Public Sector, Education & Impact (employer-sector evidence). The Centre for Industrial Mechanics in Sønderborg, Denmark, part of the Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, University of Southern Denmark (SDU), invites applications for a 2-year postdoc position in Multiphysics Modelling of Bubble Transport and Electrochemical Processes in Alkaline Electrolysers.

The position is open from October 1, 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter, and the specific start date will be agreed with the successful candidates.

About the Position The position is funded through a collaborative research and innovation project involving SDU, DTU, and Stiesdal Hydrogen, and aims to reduce the CAPEX of green hydrogen production by developing a next-generation bipolar electrode cassette for alkaline electrolysers. One focus will be on geometry-driven bubble management.

As a postdoctoral researcher, you will join the SDU Energy Systems Group at the Centre for Industrial Mechanics (CIM) and play a key role in developing advanced simulation tools and validating simulations with experimental results. Your work will combine multiphase CFD modelling, current distribution modelling, and collaboration with experimentalists1 …
