Researcher in Computational Fluid Dynamics
The candidate will engage in further research on the development and application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling to a wide range of problems relevant to rotating detonation engines (RDE’s) as well as more fundamental detonation and deflagration processes including deflagration to detonation transition. The candidate may utilize both commercial and non-commercial CFD codes as well as in-house codes. The candidate is expected to further research the development and testing of new combustion sub-models as well as further research and develop boundary conditions and numerical approaches applicable to detonative processes.
