- Support the Advanced Engineering team in the research and development of new to market products and technology.
- Perform and develop techniques for multi-physics simulations including conjugate heat transfer analysis, spray atomization, and aeroacoustics.
- Perform optimization and sensitivity analyses through design of experiments (DOE) and meta-modeling.
- Serve as subject matter expert in topics related CFD including RANS and scale resolving models.
- Develop reduced order plant models (ROM) to predict mechanical and thermal system performance using MATLAB, Simscape, Python, or similar languages.
- Perform measurements including sound, vibration, fan performance, vacuum performance, and pressure loss coefficients.
- Maintain current knowledge of developments in the field to recommend innovations to improve quality and effectiveness of company products.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering (Mechanical or Aerospace) or a related engineering field with 6+ years of relevant professional experience.
- Proficiency in CAD modeling (NX, SolidWorks or other commercial code).
- Proficiency in a computational language (MatLab, Simscape, Simulink, Python, Fortran, C, C++, or VB)
- Relevant work experience includes but is not limited to:
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation
- Simulation of compressible and incompressible flow fields using RANS and scale resolving techniques.
- Multiphysics simulations including CHT, DPM, electromagnetics, aeroacoustics, and FSI
- Simulation of multi-phase flow fields
- System modeling in Matlab, Simscape, Simulink, Python, or other computational language
- Laboratory testing and data acquisition including but not limited to sound, vibration, temperature, pressure, flow rate, torque, power, etc.
- International and domestic travel not required
- Position requires on-site work a minimum of 3 days per week.
