Jobbeskrivelse

This position is an integral part of an innovative project aimed at creating a Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) model to study cavitating flows and their noise propagation. The project's goal is to address the issue of underwater radiated noise(URN), primarily caused by ship propellers, contributing significantly to marine pollution. Collaborating with MAN-ES, a leading ship propeller manufacturer, and supported by funding from the Danish Maritime Fund and Orient Fonden, this project seeks to make substantial strides in mitigating URN's environmental impact. For more details about the project, please visit the Danish Maritime Fund's page:https://dendanskemaritimefond.dk/aalborg-universitet-towards-better-quantification-of-underwater-radiated-noise-a-population-balance-model-for-cavitating-flows-and-noise/.
As a Ph D candidate, you will engage in the development of a novel cavitating flow model, addressing the challenges of interfacial phase transition effects across multiple temporal and spatial scales. This position will predominantly focus on the theoretical aspects of multiphase flows and their implementation. Hands-on CFD simulations will be limited to validation and benchmark purposes. In particular, you will contribute to:

Developing a cavitation kernel function for population-balance equations
Implementing the cavitation model in a finite-volume CFD framework
Coupling of the developed cavitation model with acoustic radiation models, validating against experimental data

Required Qualifications

A relevant educational background within Mathematics, Physics, or Engineering, with a strong background in partial differential equations, preferably in fluid mechanics
Programming experience in C++ and/or Python

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with numerical methods for solving partial differential equations
Experience in parallelizing numerical codes and Blas/Lapack libraries
Multiphase modelling in Computational Fluid Dynamics

You may obtain further information from Professor Horia Cornean,cornean@math.aau.dk concerning the scientific aspects of the stipend.
