**Closing Date**: 10 October 2024
The Role
Applications are invited for a position of Research Assistant/Associate in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Computational Combustion. This is an exciting opportunity and your contribution will be critical to the delivery of the outcomes for an Engineering Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) funded research project (EP/Y017951/1) on swirl stabilised hydrogen premixed flames.
**The research aims to deliver on the following**:
1. An advanced Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) database for hydrogen-air premixed swirl flames under representative combustor operating conditions.
2. A comprehensive understanding and a detailed analysis of the behaviour of the Processing Vortex Core (PVC) under non-reacting and reacting flow conditions.
3. Identification of the combustor operating conditions for which hydrodynamic/thermoacoustic instabilities exist.
4. An in-depth analysis on extinction strain rates and heat release rate for lean hydrogen premixed flames. The outcomes of this project will offer knowledge on the flame stability limits and will contribute to the development of hydrogen based power generation and propulsion devices (e.g. gas turbines used for power generation and aircraft engines).
This is a full time and fixed term position. The role is available from December 2024 and will run until the 30th November 2027 in the first instance. We are committed to building and maintaining a fair and inclusive working environment and we would be happy to discuss arrangements for flexible and/or blended working.
