德国赫尔姆霍兹-泽特鲁姆-德累斯顿-罗森多夫博士后研究员职位

　　Area of research:

　　Scientific / postdoctoral posts

　　Starting date:

　　1569880800

　　Job description:

　　Postdoctoral Researcher (m/f/d) or PhD Student (m/f/d)

　　A member of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers, the HZDR employs about 1,200 people. The Center’s focus is on interdisciplinary research in the areas energy, health, and matter.

　　The Institute of Fluid Dynamics of HZDR has a strong focus on the transport, deposition and resuspension of sub-millimetre particles in flows. In urban systems, the transport of particles such as pollen particles and urban road dust pose the greatest health risk. The Institute of Fluid Dynamics currently offers a 2-year position to investigate numerically the transport, deposition and resuspension of hazardous particles, ranging in size from 1 μm to 100 μm, in large urban surfaces. Experimental validations, to be performed at our partner’s institution, are also foreseen.

　　As part of the Institute, the Department of Computational Fluid Dynamics invites applications as Postdoctoral Researcher (m/f/d). Upon request, it might be possible to turn the position into doctoral studies.

　　The position is available immediately. The employment contract is limited until 30.09.2021.

　　Tasks:

　　# perform a literature survey on transport, deposition and resuspension of pollen in urban environments

　　# conduct experimental tests at our partner’s institution

　　# implement a particle transport model

　　# simulate urban flows with large eddy simulations

　　# compare numerical with experimental data

　　Requirements:

　　# very good PhD degree in fluid mechanics or atmospheric sciences with a strong background in particle-laden flows

　　# experience in simulating atmospheric flows will be an advantage

　　# the ability to perform experimental measurements is equally important, as a one week measurement campaign is planned at our partner’s institution

　　We offer:

　　# high scientific professional networking as well as scientific excellence

　　# internationality and diversity

　　# interesting and diverse tasks, flexible working hours, salary based on the collective agreement TVöD-Bund

　　# equality of opportunity and family-friendly structures, corporate health management

　　# attractive work and research terms in a highly motivated team
