PhD studentship in theoretical combustion, UPMC, France university scholarships
Field(s): fluid dynamics
Application deadline: Jun 01 (Tue), 2010
Submitted: Mar 15, 2010
Contact: Dr Sergio Chibbaro
E-mail: sergio.chibbaro@upmc.fr
Phone: +33144278722
Fax: +33144275259
Address: Institut Jean Le Rond D'Alembert Université Paris 6 case 162 4, place jussieu 75252 Paris Cedex 05
Job description: This position would concern theoretical/numerical modelling of combustion dynamics.
The aim of the modelling work is to establish physical-sound mathematical models which are capable to shed some light on present issues for reliable design of combustion. An unresolved fundamental issue is the relative importance of hydrodynamics (turbulence) compared to chemical kinetics on the combustion process.
First, the mathematical and physical structure of the advection-reaction-diffusion equation that is typical for combustion phenomena will be studied.
In a second time, the complete compressible Navier-Stokes equation and the modelled reaction-diffusion equation previously analysed will be coupled. The work will use various experiments as basis for verifying the modelling. The experiments will be mainly from experimental research carried out at the department by the means of a rapid-compression machine.
The work will be carried out in collaboration with the University of Rome "La Sapienza".
Keywords: Turbulence, Theory, reactive flows, numerical simulations.
Applications are now invited for the position and are tenable as soon as possible. Candidates are expected to have a degree in Physics, mechanical
Engineering or a similar discipline; Candidates who are also skilled in fluid mechanics, dynamical systems and numerical methods are strongly encouraged.
