Research Fellow (Computational Fluid Dynamics) - EA7(821)

Roles & Responsibilities

As a University of Applied Learning, SIT works closely with industry in our research pursuits. Our research staff will have the opportunity to be equipped with applied research skill sets that are relevant to industry demands while working on research projects in SIT.

The primary responsibility of this role is to develop a validated and robust numerical framework to capture droplets evaporation behaviour. The project requires the Research Fellow to work with both commercial and opensource numerical software to accurately predict and capture complex droplets physical behaviour and changes as they go through evaporation under different ambient conditions. The numerical results will be validated with experimental data from literature and also from results obtained within the team.

Job Responsibilities

• Participate in and manage the research project with Principal Investigator (PI), Co-PI and the research team members to ensure all project deliverables are met.
• Meeting the project deliverables within the project timeframe, which consists of the following responsibilities : Explore different numerical models that can capture droplets physical behavior under both steady and transient state, at scales ranging from nanometres to millimetres.

Develop numerical methods to capture droplets evaporative behavior accurately

Compare and validate numerical results with experimental data from both literature and in-house experiment results

Use state-of-the-art machine learning models to develop a multi-scale droplets evaporation model
