CAE Engineer

Aeroacoustics Engineer

At the Personal Centre, we aim to create the world's most inspired and confident driving experience. The department is organized as a Team of Team (ToT) within the agile way of working and consists of 18 scrum teams.

The department Propulsion and Climate Attributes is responsible for the NVH integration of the electrical propulsion system and the climate system. We are responsible for the sound and vibration development of bushings, stiffness of structures, fans, blowers, HVAC air distribution and also related functional calibration. Together we ensure that we provide a high acoustic quality experience of these systems in the vehicle together with the product development teams. The department consists of two scrum teams with both test and CAE analysis engineers.

The present task consists of taking part of the NVH development of cooling fans and HVAC systems. It mainly includes numerical simulations aiming to quantify aeroacoustics noise generation from those systems but also to design and take part of measurements for validation. The outcome of the studies will be used to guide the design engineers to meet our NVH requirements in future vehicles The main working tools are STAR CCM+, Actran and Ansa where the candidate needs to have deep knowledge.

Main responsibilities

• Perform aeroacoustics simulations using the CFD simulation tool STAR CCM+

• Participate in car program teams and communicate analysis results and guide the design work from an NVH perspective

• Participate in the requirement setting of the NVH attribute at system level

• Participate in the development of improved or new methods and guidelines

• Participate in implementation of solutions in the vehicle/engine/driveline

Required qualifications

• Competencies in aeroacoustics and computational fluid dynamics

• Good knowledge in STAR CCM+, Ansa, Python, Matlab and MS Office

• Fluent in English, written and spoken

• Minimum M.Sc. Engineering Mechanics, Physics or equivalent
