Description

The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) engineer provides expertise and technical leadership in the design of systems involving momentum, energy, and mass transport.

The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Engineer is responsible for performing simulations for aero/thermal development, supporting cooling, thermal protection and climate control development. The CFD Engineer will work closely with Thermal Integration engineers, Engine Systems, HVAC/Interior, Body engineering as well as Advanced Design Engineering and Styling Studio to communicate simulation results and recommendations. The candidate will use several simulation software tools such as STAR-CCM+, ANSA and TAITherm to perform required simulations. Detailed job duties include:

Perform vehicle level Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to support Aero/Thermal Development and assessment including powertrain cooling, HVAC cooling, air induction and thermal protection.

· Perform CFD simulations focused on automotive paint processes, primarily electrodeposition coating (eCoat) simulations.

· Work on future vehicle programs with a focus on process efficiency and innovation.

· Pro-actively develop and carry out CFD simulations for new programs based on vehicle content and functional objectives.

· Work closely with aero/thermal integration engineers, release groups and design studios to communicate simulation results and implement design improvements.

· Prepare high quality presentations to communicate simulation results and design recommendations to various groups.

· Ensure CFD model validity and correlation on a continuous basis.

· Make design changes to demonstrate benefits and perform multiple 'what if' studies to guide the design process.

· Fully engage in vehicle development activity and proactively take ownership of simulation activity to best guide the design team.

· Participate in vehicle testing activities to enhance correlation between physical testing and virtual simulations.

· Work with off shore teams as needed to execute projects.
