Rarefied Gas Dynamics Expert
2 months ago
We are seeking a highly skilled Physicist to lead the research and development efforts related to our air-breathing electric propulsion system for our satellites operating in Ultra-Low Earth Orbit (ULEO).
About the Role
- Rarefied Gas Dynamics Research: Conduct in-depth research on the behavior of gasses in rarefied conditions which are found in 200 km orbit, applying kinetic theory and statistical mechanics to model gas flow and interaction with satellite surfaces.
- Simulation and Modeling: Develop and implement advanced computational models, such as Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) methods, to simulate the dynamics of rarefied gasses interacting with satellite components. Ideally knowledge of dsmcFoam, SPARTA or other DSMC solvers.
- Experimental Validation: Design and conduct experiments to validate theoretical models and simulations, using vacuum chambers and other specialized equipment to replicate ULEO conditions.
- Surface Interaction Studies: Investigate gas-surface interactions within our propulsion system to enhance material selection and surface design for optimal performance.
- Thermal Management: Analyze and model the thermal effects of rarefied gas interactions within the propulsion system, ensuring effective thermal management and preventing system degradation.
Requirements
- Educational Background: Ph.D. in Physics, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field, with a strong focus on rarefied gas dynamics, kinetic theory, or related areas.
- Industry Experience: Proven experience in modelling and simulating rarefied gas dynamics, particularly in aerospace or related fields. Experience with space applications or satellite technology is a significant plus.
- Technical Expertise: Proficiency in numerical simulation techniques, particularly DSMC, and experience with relevant software tools and programming languages (e.g., MATLAB, Python, C++).
- Experimental Skills: Hands-on experience with experimental setups for studying rarefied gas behaviour, including the use of vacuum chambers and diagnostic tools for measuring gas flow and surface interactions.
- Analytical Skills: Strong analytical abilities, with a deep understanding of gas kinetics, thermodynamics, and statistical mechanics as applied to rarefied gas environments.
- Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to produce clear, concise technical documentation and effectively collaborate with multidisciplinary teams.
