The importance and popularity of gaseous detonation simulations is gaining its momentum due to the raising demand for advanced technologies that result in improved efficiency and are more favourable to the environment. New engines developed based on high-speed combustion, such as detonation, are of raising interest due to the icreased pressure gain compared with traditional combustion methods. However, reactive and compressible chaotic gas-dynamical events associated with the gaseous detonation waves and which result in multidimensional and unsteady structures make precise experimental studies extremely challenging. In this regard, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) offer an alternative approach to study the flow physics. This internship will be dedicated to the numerical study of detonations by using a hybrid Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM)[1,2] stabilised by MOOD paradigma [3].
THE CANDIDATE
Last year of Ecole d’Ingénieur or Master 2, you are specialising in fluid mechanics (especially the energy major would be an advantage), numerical simulations or applied mathematics. A notion of combustion is a plus. The candidate must have a taste for and (at least some) experience in programming, particularly C++. Some basic knowledge of parallelisation paradigms would be welcomed. The candidate must be fluid in English in both, speaking and academic writing.
Your CV along with cover letter and grades for the last two years are to be sent to:
- pierre.boivin@univ-amu.fr
- ksenia.kozhanova@univ-amu.fr
