Qualifications
- Essential Qualifications
- Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical/Process Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, Fluid Dynamics or a closely related engineering discipline.
- Practical experience applying CFD to engineering projects, with strong fluid mechanics and numerical analysis fundamentals.
- Hands-on experience using one or more recognised commercial CFD model, such as Siemens STAR-CCM+ or ANSYS Fluent
- Good understanding of multiphase flow modelling and the ability to assess assumptions and numerical results critically.
- Ability to independently plan and deliver CFD work, manage priorities and communicate practical technical recommendations.
- Clear technical reporting and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across engineering disciplines.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience delivering complex CFD work independently; approximately three to four years of postgraduate experience is indicative, not a strict threshold.
- Master’s degree, chartered engineer status or membership of an appropriate professional body.
- Experience in separation or produced-water equipment, Lagrangian particle tracking, FEA, process guarantees, R&D or physical-test correlation.
Responsibilities
- Plan and deliver CFD analysis for engineering projects, technology development and R&D, focusing on multiphase fluid flow.
- Model separation and produced-water equipment, including vessel internals, flow distribution, residence time, pressure loss and separation performance.
- Select appropriate physical models, boundary conditions, mesh strategies and convergence criteria for technically sound analyses.
- Evaluate the quality, sensitivity and limitations of simulation results and translate findings into practical engineering recommendations.
- Support equipment design, optimisation, performance verification and technical evidence for process guarantees.
- Work with process, mechanical, design and project engineers to define analysis requirements and resolve technical challenges.
- Prepare technical reports and present CFD findings to internal teams and external customers.
- Manage assigned CFD activities and priorities, communicating technical and delivery risks in a timely manner.
- Contribute to R&D, modelling-method improvements and comparisons between CFD predictions and pilot-scale physical testing.
