SENIOR CFD-ENGINEER IN THE AREA OF ENGINE DEVELOPMENT

We are looking for a senior engineer to join our team at Fluid and Combustion Simulation at Scania in Södertälje, Sweden.

We perform simulations on internal gas and liquid flows in the combustion engine of our heavy duty engines. Most engines are compression ignited diesel engines but alternative fuels and spark ignition engines are also part of our work.

Our group is characterized by happy and knowledgeable engineers and is responsible for simulation and calculation of components that affect gas exchange, combustion, fuel spray, coolant and oil systems.

Your assignments
You will be responsible for having a continuous communication with our internal customers in order to understand their needs and deliver design recommendations using simulation results. You will present results both verbally at technical meetings and in written reports.
  
Your profile
We believe you have a master degree or Ph.D. in the area of mechanical engineering or physics. You have a deep knowledge in combustion engine related CFD simulation and in the physics of turbulent combustion, as well as how to model these phenomena using CFD.
 
You should have around ten years of experience in 3D flow simulation using at least two of the following tools: AVL Fire, Ansys Workbench (CFX/Fluent), Star-CCM+ or OpenFoam, and we require that you have a very good knowledge in Linux OS. We assume that you have good knowledge of pre-processing tools like ANSA, Ansys meshing and Spaceclaim. For special treatment of our geometric data we use Catia V5.
 
 
We will emphasize on the following parts in your profile. 

• Very good communication skills with a customer focus (our customers are both internal and external).
• Ambitious with internal drive and ability to take decisions.
• Interest in both our daily product development using simulations as well as in method development.

 
In addition to specific engine CFD knowledge, a general knowledge of CFD is highly valued. Previous experience of compression ignited and/or spark ignited combustion simulation using CFD, and experience of the automotive industry in general and Scania in specific is appreciated.
