PhD in Two-Phase Flow: Hybrid Interface Methods

CNRS; France; On-site; EUR 21,000 - 27,000; Full time

Job summary

CNRS through the Laboratoire Procédés, Matériaux et Energie Solaire (PROMES) seeks a PhD researcher to advance numerical methods for two-phase flows with interface resolution and property jumps. The project combines theory, open-source code development (Basilisk, TrioCFD, JADIM), and rigorous validation on academic and applied test cases.

The three-year PhD, funded by ANR REGIME, involves development, implementation, and evaluation of novel regularization techniques with stays at Paris and

Qualifications

• Master's degree in computational fluid mechanics, applied mathematics, or computational engineering.
• Proficiency in numerical methods (finite volumes, finite elements).
• Experience in scientific programming (C++, Python, Fortran).
• Knowledge of fluid-fluid two-phase flows and HPC (a plus).

Responsibilities

• Development of hybrid cut-cell and one-fluid methods.
• Implementation of these methods in TrioCFD (CEA's front-tracking code).
• Validation and evaluation of methods for heat transfer problems.
