German-based climate engineering firm, and one of the premier such offices in
the world. We are seeking talented, highly motivated engineers for our

<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Transsolar develops and validate concepts
for high quality environments that require minimal energy use. To achieve this
we work collaboratively within the design team from the start of the design
process, considering each step from the standpoint of fundamental
thermodynamics. This generates a climate concept in which form, material, and
mechanical systems are synergistic components of a well-orchestrated climate
control system; and conversely, an environmental control strategy that is
integral to the architectural concept.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>We use a wide variety of computer
simulation tools to evaluate our concepts. We perform dynamic thermal simulation
using TRNSYS to develop and validate appropriate, reliable concepts in
relationship to the complex set of factors that is unique to each project.
Similarly, we perform daylight simulations using RADIANCE and computational
fluid dynamics (CFD) using FLUENT.</FONT>
