IL, USA

GTI is looking for a Mechanical, Chemical or Aerospace engineer with specialization in fluids and thermal sciences to join our flow solver development group. We develop GT-SUITE, a sophisticated desktop software package for simulating engine and vehicle performance. It is quite broad in scope, spanning model building, 3D solid modeling and graphics. It is capable of performing a wide range of multiphysics simulations (fluid, thermal, acoustics, electromagnetics, chemical and controls) of systems in the automotive industry.

This role requires an individual with a suite of technical skills that may include numerical model development (not just using existing tools) in the areas of Computational Fluid Dynamics, Thermal Analysis, Electromagnetics, Numerical Methods, Finite Volume, Finite Element, Programming for solver development (FORTRAN, C/C++) and project management skills.

Job Responsibilities

  • Develop and test advanced mathematical models of fluid and thermal system models in engine and powertrain systems, involving equations governing compressible and incompressible fluid dynamics, heat transfer, phase change, and thermophysical properties of gases and liquids
  • Develop numerical algorithms to simulate reactive systems involving turbulent flows, diffusion and reaction kinetics for application in automotive engine in-cylinder processes modeling. Prepare and execute validation plan for new features
  • Prepare and execute validation plan for new features.
  • Propose initiatives to optimize solvers and to implement new technologies to improve performance.
  • Maintain solvers modularity and version management.

Basic Qualifications
