3 weeks ago
- Support the design, analysis, and testing of systems and components used in a variety of propulsion and energy processes. Typical application areas include: supercritical CO2 oxy-fuel combustion systems, gas turbine combustion systems, launch vehicle components.
- Apply principles of machine design, piping/pressure vessel design, process controls and instrumentation, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer to develop test systems and specify components.
- Many systems operate at extreme pressure and temperature conditions.
- Apply knowledge of fabrication methods, assembly, and geometric dimensioning & tolerance (GD&T) to ensure components are designed in a way that can be manufactured and assembled.
- Utilize CAD software (Solidworks) to develop mechanical designs and visualize component fitments and assemblies.
- Communicate ideas, results, and other information to coworkers as well as commercial and government clients.
- Provide analytical and experimental support to more than one project in a team environment. Typical tasks include literature reviews, design, analysis, and simulation development. Use commercial engineering software for design and analysis, such as ANSYS Workbench or ANSYS APDL.
- Provide mechanical and machine design support for a variety of applications that include power generation, propulsion, and combustion.
- As needed, work across the Institute to draw on the experience from thousands of engineers and technicians.
- Contribute and be responsible for technical development of experimental test programs, including developing/operating a new test rig.
- Take responsibility for testing/rig modifications to meet new project objectives.
- Support the technical work of other engineers and technicians.
- Assess the best approach to solve problems and interrogate results for reliability.
- Provide troubleshooting support for tests and simulations with a firm understanding of theories and concepts using a first-principles approach.
- Perform mechanical design tasks at the technical direction of senior engineers in support of projects/proposal efforts.
- Be a problem solver that exercises creativity and judgment to help a team of engineers determine new approaches to solve a wide range of technical problems.
- Requires a Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related engineering degree.
- 0-5 years: Mechanical design experience applying tools like FEA to predict component/assembly stresses and evaluate fitness for service.
- 0-5 years: Design, commissioning, and testing experience with high pressure and/or extreme temperature (cryogenic or combustion) process systems.
- 0-5 years: Experience with industry standards, such as ASME Pressure Vessel Code, ASME B31 Piping Codes, machine assembly, maintenance, and repair.
- A valid/clear driver's license is required.
