Thermal System Design Engineer

Thermal System Design Engineer will be responsible for carrying out the gas turbine component thermal analysis, secondary air system and oil system design & analysis activities within the turbojet & turbofan development programs. This role requires expert knowledge in heat transfer, fluid mechanics, gas turbine propulsion, planning for projects and ability to develop individuals.

Responsibilities

• Carry out component thermal analysis simulations for thermal mapping of the engine
• Carry out steady and transient thermal & secondary flows assessment in gas turbine engine components
• Carry out sizing and design studies for the oil / lubrication system, seals, sump, bearings & pumps.
• Develop numerical and experimental methods for method verification and validation
• Support other team members, develop junior engineers and provide constructive feedback
• Review the designs, simulations and generate testing guidelines
• Identify project risks and plan for mitigation

Requirements

• Experience:
• Aerospace, Mechanical Engineering degree or a related field.
• Strong background in gas turbine propulsion, heat transfer, thermodynamics and fluid mechanics.
• Fluent in English
• Technical skills in one or a combination of stated topics.
• Using commercial tools such as Ansys Workbench or similar.
• Experience in FEA, CFD or lower order simulation methods.
• Experience in 1D flow network software such as Flomaster and Amesim
• Experience in programming using C, Matlab/Simulink or similar.
• Awareness on the state-of-the-art technologies in materials, aerodynamics and structural mechanics to link with thermal system design for gas turbine propulsion
• Good communication and presentation skills to interact with team members, clients, and vendors.
• Ability to solve problems, prioritize tasks and delegate when necessary
