Computational Fluid Dynamics Analyst
Save
Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysts are engineering and science professionals who use computers to simulate fluid flow, heat transfer, and other physical processes. They use their knowledge of physics, mathematics, and computer science to create models that can help businesses optimize their products and processes. For example, a Computational Fluid Dynamics Analyst might work on a team to design a more efficient engine for a car or to design a new aircraft wing that will reduce drag.
Computational Fluid Dynamics Analyst Responsibilities
Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysts typically have the following responsibilities:
- Develop computer models of fluid flow, heat transfer, and other physical processes
- Use these models to simulate and analyze the performance of products and processes
- Identify and solve problems with fluid flow and heat transfer
- Recommend design changes to improve the performance of products and processes
- Collaborate with engineers and scientists in other disciplines to develop new products and processes
Computational Fluid Dynamics Analyst Requirements
Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysts typically need a bachelor's degree in engineering, physics, or mathematics. They also need to have experience with computer modeling and simulation software. Some employers may also require a master's degree in computational fluid dynamics or a related field.
