TitlePostDoc Position in Turbulent Multiphase Flows
CategoryPostDoc Position
EmployerJohannes Kepler University
LocationAustria, Linz
InternationalYes, international applications are welcome
Closure DateWednesday, February 19, 2025
Description:
The ERC Starting project "FragTuRe" is looking for a talented postdoctoral 
candidate for a three-year position in Johannes Kepler University, Linz, 
Austria. The project aims to explore a novel deterministic approach to 
understanding the physics of turbulent emulsification and to analyze droplet 
fragmentation in turbulent flows through theoretical analysis, experimental 
characterization, and numerical simulation. The postdoctoral researcher will 
play a key role in developing theoretical frameworks and conducting three-
dimensional optical measurements in droplet-laden turbulent flows. We are 
looking for a highly motivated candidate with a PhD degree in the field of fluid 
mechanics (mechanical engineering, chemical engineering) or physics. Candidate 
should have a strong background in theory and analysis of fluid mechanics and 
turbulence preferably in multiphase flows.


Expected start date: May 2025 (or as soon as possible thereafter)


Job Duties:

- Develop the theoretical framework to study turbulent multiphase flows

- Contribute to conducting three-dimensional optical measurements in droplet-
laden turbulent flows 

- Conduct data analysis and interpretation mostly based on experimental and 
numerical data

- Collaborate with other team members and contribute to supervision of PhD 
students in the project

- Disseminate research findings in the form of scientific publications and 
conference presentations


Your Qualifications:

* PhD degree in the field of fluid mechanics (mechanical engineering, chemical 
engineering) or physics

* Strong background in theory and analysis of turbulent flows (preferably in 
multiphase systems)

* Experience with data analysis in fluid mechanics

* Strong programming skills (Python and/or C++)

* Prior experience with measurement techniques in fluid mechanics such as PIV 
method could be a plus

* Strong command of English (level B2/C1). Knowledge of the German language is 
not required for this job


Employment and Salary:

This is a 3-year position with full-time employment (40 hours/week), and the
