WORKING AND RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Internship, Philips Healthcare (June 2013-August 2014) Aurora, IL
Use Solidworks and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) knowledge to modify and improve
inserts assembly of X-Ray tubes.
Solve arcing issues including moisture contamination of oil and housing parts to avoid dielectric strength
decreasing.
Collect high voltage dark current data from X-Ray tubes to analyze HV stability by the Fowler-Nordheim
theory.
Design the fixture to measure the stress/strain change of X-Ray tube housing during high gravity situation.
Analyze the design principle of the oil pump and run thermal tests to avoid fire accident and protect the CT
system.
Participate in the redesign of the oil cooling in X-Ray tube to avoid the high thermal energy generation.
Create the image quality procedure to examine the status of X-Ray tubes.
