Curious about how the world works? So are we. Join the Multiphase Group at Chalmers and help us push the boundaries of fluid dynamics through curiosity-driven, cutting-edge research!
About UsThis position is placed at the Division of Fluid Dynamics, which belongs to the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
At the Department of Mechanical Engineering, we unite the power of technology, people, and society to drive the transition toward a sustainable future. Through research, education, and collaboration, we create solutions that connect materials to mobility, ideas to impact – shaping a resilient and sustainable world.
At the Division of Fluid Dynamics, our mission is to gain fundamental knowledge about turbulent incompressible and compressible, single and multiphase flows through numerical and experimental research. We develop new and improved computational and experimental techniques for the study of such flows in both fundamental and real-world environments. Our applied research is carried out in close cooperation with industry, both in national and in international projects.
About The Research ProjectCan the random motion of a tiny particle reveal what is happening in its surroundings? This project explores how Brownian motion is shaped by fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, and chemical reactions in confined environments. Using particle-resolved Direct Numerical Simulations (PR-DNS), we will uncover the physical mechanisms linking particle dynamics to their local environment and develop new ways to extract information about chemical reactivity from observable particle motion. The work combines fundamental fluid dynamics with new opportunities for nanoscale diagnostics.
