The researcher will actively engage with project partners, exchange knowledge, and provide experimental data to support and validate combustion models developed by collaborators
**Key Responsibilities**
- Experimental Investigation:
Design, develop, and operate novel experimental setups for multi-fuel combustion testing. Conduct advanced laser diagnostics to investigate combustion stability, pollutant formation, and the effects of fuel blending (e.g., hydrogen with ammonia or kerosene). Optimize experimental conditions to explore operational limits and identify performance; improvements.
- Data Analysis:
Analyze experimental data to extract meaningful insights into combustion dynamics, pollutant pathways, and stability behavior. Emphasize uncertainty quantification to ensure robust conclusions and provide reliable data for validation of combustion models.
- Research Collaboration:
Actively collaborate with academic and industrial partners within the framework of a European project. Share experimental findings, exchange knowledge, and contribute to discussions on model validation and system integration. Maintain clear and effective communication with project partners to ensure alignment of objectives and deliverables.
This is a unique opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking research at the forefront of sustainable energy and aviation innovation.
**Requirements**:
To be considered for this position, you should have:
- PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related field, with a strong focus on experimental reacting flows.
- In-depth knowledge and hands-on experience in designing and conducting experiments in reacting flows.
- Expertise in laser-based diagnostics techniques for analyzing reacting flows.
- Experience with experimental validation techniques and advanced data analysis.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
- A proven ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary research team.
**Preferred Qualifications**:
Experience in collaborative research projects, particularly within European frameworks.
**Additional Requirements**:
Working at TU Delft requires English proficiency at a professional level to ensure effective communication and collaboration within the team and with project partners.
