Research Assistant - salary grade E13 TV-L Berliner Hochschulen - 1st qualification phase (for doctorate)

part-time employment may be possible

Working field:

Scientists at the Hermann Rietschel Institute have been researching the energy-efficient use of system technology in buildings and neighborhoods for 125 years. Our research profile aims to minimize the tension between the main topics

• 
  Contamination control,
  
• 
  Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) and
  
• 
  Energy-efficient systems engineering in buildings and districts
  

Our expertise in the development of physical and AI-supported simulation models as well as the development and maintenance of numerous test laboratories enables us to offer a range of services from basic research to prototype development

In the areas of indoor air quality and contamination control, the HRI researches energy-efficient control strategies and air distribution systems to meet the high requirements for air quality in clean rooms such as operating theatres, pharmaceutical production facilities, semiconductor industry rooms and medical technology. A central component is the risk assessment of contamination transmission through airborne aerosols in event rooms, offices, classrooms or swimming pools for various ventilation scenarios. Current research projects focus on experimental and simulative investigations into the spread of particles and the deactivation of viruses in the air

The HRI maintains various test laboratories to investigate thermal, visual and hygienic aspects of indoor quality and their interdependence. Here, innovative measurement and control concepts for indoor climate control are developed, which aim to optimize the ratio of benefits (IEQ) to costs (energy consumption). To evaluate comfort, we rely on field tests and subject studies in test laboratories and virtual reality environments. Following the principle of "air as food”, we investigate sources of contamination in indoor air as well as complex, transient indoor air flows in order to derive ventilation performance indicators and create a hygienic basis for indoor living

Do you want to successfully complete a PhD? We are looking for you to support our team and offer you a structured PhD process!

In our current research projects, we are looking for your support in our team

• 
  to develop valid measurement systems to determine indoor air quality,
  
• 
  to develop key figures for the determining of air quality,
  
• 
  to conducting experimental studies to evaluate indoor air quality,
  
• 
  to communicate your research results in specialist journals, at scientific conferences and in scientific journals and
  
• 
  for the development of research project proposals
  
• 
  in the collaboration in research and teaching
