The Fire and Explosion Modelling (FMEG) group in the School of Mechanical Engineering Sciences is seeking a Research Fellow to work on pan European project NHyRA “PRE-NORMATIVE RESEARCH ON HYDROGEN RELEASES ASSESSMENT”. Funded by Horizon Europe, NHyRA aims to develop methodologies to quantify potential anthropogenic hydrogen releases along the entire hydrogen value chain. The results will inform the assessment the impact of anthropogenic hydrogen releases on climate, which is the aim of another EU project.
About the role
New or adequately adapted experimental, theoretical, and simulation methodologies will be validated in NHyRA to perform laboratory or in-field measurements to achieve the project goal. The Research Fellow will work under the supervision of the Surrey PI, Professor Jennifer Wen, to deliver Surry’s contribution to the project. The researcher will conduct CFD simulations to validate the measurement/analysis methods of the partners and estimate anthropogenic hydrogen emissions that cannot be directly measured. He/she will also need to develop efficient methods to evaluate the overall H2 emission rates from measurements and analysis conducted by other partners.
This is a full-time post, which should start as soon as possible but with a fixed end date of 31 December 2026. For an informal discussion about the post please contact Prof. Jennifer Wen; [email protected] Information about research activities at FMEG can be found at https://www.surrey.ac.uk/fire-and-explosion-modelling-group
About you
We are looking for a researcher with a doctoral degree in a relevant discipline (although individuals who have almost completed a doctoral degree may be appointed). Experience in CFD simulations for both non-reactive and reactive flows will be essential. Candidates with experience of OpenFOAM will be preferable.
