Scientist - Computational Fluid Mechanics

RCPE - Research Center Pharmaceutical Engineering

Graz, Austria

Duties and responsibilities

Develop and apply simulation methods for freeze drying (lyophilization) processes, including equipment- and vial-scale CFD (computational fluid dynamics) models as well as reduced-order models and digital twins based on those simulations. Activities will focus on the improvement and development of simulation methods that take into account the elements of freeze-drying processes, including:

• Developing competence in fluid mechanics;
• Learning numerical methods and computational fluid dynamics;
• Setting up, performing and analyzing computational fluid dynamics models for rarified multi-component flow;
• Developing reduced-order models based on results from computational fluid dynamics simulations;
• Actively participating in project teams and scientific networks;
• Writing project reports and publishing research in reputed journals;
• Presenting results at internal meetings and at international conferences with partners and colleagues.

Requirements

• A technical or natural scientific MS degree (e.g. chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, mathematics, physics, …) and interest in pursuing a PhD degree;
• Knowledge in CFD modeling as well basic knowledge in programing languages (Phyton, C++) as an advantage;
• Interest in performing research at the interface of basic science and industrial application;
• Professional conduct and communication skills in dealing with international clients, partners and colleagues;
• Interest and experience in performing top-level and target-oriented research at the interface of basic science and industrial application.
