PhD position within the topic of “Modelling of thermo-hydraulic phenomena in small diameter channels with mixed refrigerants” – Norway
June 15, 2009PhD position within the topic of “Modelling of thermo-hydraulic phenomena in small diameter channels with mixed refrigerants”
Melding til: IVT Fakultetsadministrasjon
Nettopp: Ledige stillinger
A PhD research scholarship for the project “Modelling of thermo-hydraulic phenomena in small diameter channels with mixed refrigerants” is available at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Division of Fluid Mechanics, Department of Energy and Process Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Science and Technology.
The objective of the current project is to develop and apply new heat transfer models for the prediction of heat transfer and two-phase flow characteristics in small diameter channel refrigeration systems involving mixture refrigerants. The multiscale nature of the multicomponent thermo-hydraulic problem will be tackled with diffuse interface methods to simulate mesoscale effects and non-local continuum theory to describe the macro¬microscale phenomena. This model should be able to predict the variation in the heat transfer capabilities with composition, and also with respect to single component refrigerants behavior. Complementary experimental work could also be considered.
The PhD candidate is expected to hold a master’s level degree in a subject relevant for the PhD project and to have a good combination of knowledge and skills in the following areas:
• good knowledge of fluid dynamics / fluid physics
• good know ledge of heat transfer and thermodynamics
• mathematical modeling and numerical methods
• scientific computing and programming Some acquaintance with multiphase flow, multi scale methods, microdevices and experimental work will be useful.
Further information about the position may be obtained from Associate Professor Maria Fernandino (maria.fernandino@ntnu.no) or Associate Professor Carlos A. Dorao (carlos.dorao@ntnu.no).
An application inclusive CV, grade transcripts and other enclosures should be sent electronically through http://www.jobbnorge.no, ref.no. IVT-63/09. Preferably, we want the attachments in one file. Application deadline: July 6th, 2009.

I’m working now in Dalat Nuclear Research Institute, in Vietnam. I’m an operator of Dalat Nuclear Research Reactor.That is why I’m very interesting in the “Modelling of thermo-hydraulic phenomena in small diameter channels with mixed refrigerants”. It is the most important subject to control the reactor in safe manner. Morover, I would like following the Nuclear Power Plant of our country in the near future. So please let me know all necessary proceduces to apply this position. Please send me them by my email adress:” hoangttt2000@yahoo.com“
i am from ethiopia, and i do have master of education in physics. i need to learn phd program in modeling of thermo hydraulic phenomena . because i have taken thermo dynamics , and other relevant courses. i need to hear your response ,the possibility that i have to join in the program.i am looking for your response soon.
thank you.
I get my BA in pure mathematic in National University of Iran and I’m studying apply Mathematic (Numerical computation) in guilan University
If I could get full scholarship I want to study your offer with intrest.
thanks.
hi , sorry my frist post is a request, but i was wondering if anyone knows where i could find a list of colleges around me? like i want to find whatevers within 100miles. thanks in advance!
