Newcastle upon Tyne, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom Newcastle University Full time

The Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Research Assistant/Associate to join our team in the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Computational Combustion. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to a funded research project focused on swirl stabilised hydrogen premixed flames.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and deliver advanced Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) databases for hydrogen-air premixed swirl flames under representative combustor operating conditions.
  • Conduct a comprehensive analysis of the behaviour of the Processing Vortex Core (PVC) under non-reacting and reacting flow conditions.
  • Identify combustor operating conditions for which hydrodynamic/thermoacoustic instabilities exist.
  • Perform an in-depth analysis on extinction strain rates and heat release rate for lean hydrogen premixed flames.

Requirements

  • PhD in a relevant field, such as CFD, turbulent flows, or turbulent reacting flows.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and ability to network and influence.
  • Experience in designing and delivering research outcomes at local and international conferences.
  • Ability to engage with PhD students and the wider research community within the group.
