Thermal-Fluids Simulation Engineer

The role

You will use hand calculations and computational tools to predict the performance of thermal management components. You will work with Solutions Engineers and Thermal Design Engineers to optimize designs for customer requirements.

What you will do

• Do hand calculations, select appropriate correlation coefficients, and build simple scaling models
• Perform coupled thermo-fluid simulations using CFD software to predict pressure drop and thermal performance
• Provide guidance and input on customer development projects
• Develop and improve best practices around simulation

Required qualifications

• Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or other relevant field
• 2+ years of industry experience
• Experience with Siemens SimCenter
• Experience in thermal-fluid simulation and analysis
• Comfort with selecting turbulence closures, running mesh refinement studies, estimating model error, extracting dimensionless correlation coefficients from simulations
• Experience with a wide range of reference literature on calculating thermal and fluid behavior of components
• Ability to deliver results in a quickly evolving environment
• Familiarity with design engineering work
