Description

Starting from October 1st, 2023, the Institute of Fluid Mechanics at the collaborative research center Transregio SynTrac in Vadnais Heights, MN is seeking a Research Associate (M/F/d) for a fixed-term of 3.75 years to work on a doctorate in the field of assessing flow losses in the integration of aircraft airframe and propulsion.

The main goal of this research is to achieve climate-neutral flying through highly integrated aircraft development. This project is a collaboration between TU Braunschweig, University of Stuttgart, LUH Hannover, and DLR Braunschweig.


In the subproject A02 at the Institute of Fluid Mechanics, the Research Associate will use numerical methods to assess and minimize flow losses in highly integrated aircraft and propulsion systems.

This includes exploring advanced configurations of Boundary Layer Ingestion into the aircraft propulsor to exploit new synergies between airframe and propulsion.

The Research Associate will work closely with other tasks within the SYNTRAC consortium, such as jet engine design, aircraft design, inlet design, experimental groups, and numerical methods development.


The successful candidate will be part of an interdisciplinary and cross-location research team and will receive support from an integrated research training group.

The concept of "New Work" will foster new forms of collaboration.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct research in the collaborative research center on the topic A02 "Simulation of Aircraft Flow Losses"
  • Publish research findings and participate in national and international conferences
