Applications are invited for a 4-year funded Ph.D. studentship in Trinity College Dublins Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering to investigate the use of synthetic jet actuators for flow control and efficiency optimization of tidal and/or wind turbines for renewable electricity generation. The project will investigate the fluid mechanics of the interaction between single and multiple synthetic jets with boundary layer flows, in conditions representative for turbine blades. The study comprises both numerical analysis using computational fluid dynamics and extensive experimental testing and validation on laboratory scale models, using advanced instrumentation for fluid mechanics research (particle image velocimetry and hot-film/wire anemometry). Applicants should have a B.Sc. and/or M.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering or a closely-related discipline, with background knowledge of fluid mechanics and interest in numerical fluid flow simulation and experimental research (preferentially both). Basic knowledge of control system theory is an advantage. For further information and enquiries please contact Dr. Tim Persoons (tim.persoons@tcd.ie). To apply, please send your curriculum vitae, giving full details of qualifications and experience, along with the names of two referees. Successful candidates are expected to start in March/April 2012. See Further Particulars for more detailed information
