Senior CFD Analyst

Run steady-state and transient CFD simulations in ANSYS Fluent and OpenFOAM across project types ranging from industrial systems Set up turbulence models (k-ε, k-ω SST, RSM) appropriate to the flow regime — not just accept solver defaults. Perform mesh generation in ANSYS Meshing and snappyHexMesh; own mesh quality decisions including y+ targets for wall-bounded flows. Analyse conjugate heat transfer (CHT) problems in process equipment and electronics cooling applications. Conduct multiphase flow simulations using VOF and Eulerian-Eulerian frameworks for separator vessels and mixing tank projects. Post-process results in CFD-Post and ParaView; produce engineering reports with quantified uncertainty, not just pretty contour plots. Interface directly with mechanical design teams to translate CFD findings into geometry changes — expect to mark up CAD drawings and explain pressure drop penalties in ₹/year energy cost terms. Support proposal efforts by scoping simulation hours, defining physics assumptions, and identifying risk areas in new project enquiries. Contribute to in-house best-practice guidelines and solver settings documentation for recurring problem classes.
