Who We Are :
The Propulsion & Energy Machinery Section performs R&D in the fields of air-breathing and liquid propulsion. Our team develops the Numerical Propulsion System Simulation software, the industry-standard software for cycle and performance analysis of these advanced propulsion systems.
Objectives of this Role :
- Work in a team to support Numerical Propulsion System Simulation (NPSS) software.
- Activities include engineering model development, program interface development, software testing, code infrastructure development and code development.
- Conduct thermal-fluid simulations using one-dimensional tools, either NPSS or commercial software, for propulsion and power generation applications which include common cycle components, such as compressors, turbines, heat exchangers, combustors, and motor / generators.
- Provide model development support and hands-on testing support for complex test rigs and prototype machinery being built and tested at SwRI.
- Provide engineering support to NPSS users and clients. Participate in teaching NPSS training courses. Promote the use of NPSS at technical conferences through papers and presentations.
Daily and Monthly Responsibilities :
- Resolve NPSS software bugs in the engineering elements, models, and interfaces.
- Add new modeling capabilities to NPSS. These are generally long-duration, complex efforts that are decided upon annually by the NPSS consortium members.
- Support cycle model efforts for projects within the Department using NPSS or other engineering software to perform evaluations of problems of propulsion, power, and energy machinery and associated sub-systems.
- Document progress through technical presentations and update Consortium members through regular meetings.
- Work independently with minimal supervision.
- Participate in design and code reviews.
Requirements :
- Requires a Bachelors, Masters or a PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineer, Aeronautical Engineering, Computer Science, or related.
- Advanced degrees will be considered in lieu of some years of experience.
- 1-2 years : Experience conducting fluid and thermodynamics analyses of gas turbines or similarly complex systems using software similar to the following : NPSS, MATLAB, LabVIEW, Engineering Equation Solver (EES), Flownex, Easy5, Thermal Desktop, or PROOSIS, GasTurb, Modelica.
- 1-2 years : Experience developing engineering software or scripts based on the C++, FORTRAN, Python, or other pertinent programming languages.
- A valid / clear driver's license is required.
