Fluids Engineer - CA

Create and/or update an existing conjugate heat transfer model to represent the design and conditions of a specific application. Validate assumptions and boundary conditions. Predict critical temperatures within the motor to verify acceptable operating conditions. Create and/or update existing fluid models within rotating components to predict windage losses and consequent heat transfer phenomena and temperatures to validate the feasibility of specific rotating machinery designs and operating conditions.

Create fluid models to predict pressure losses for given temperature and flow conditions in lubrication circuits. Use proprietary tools and commercial CFD tools to design and predict performance of new compressors to meet the requirements of specific applications. Modeling of bearings with continuous oil feed through and internally-generated heat losses, along with heat transfer phenomena to predict bearing race and cage temperatures.
