Intern in Applied Aerodynamics - Advanced Aerodynamics
Advanced Aerodynamics design and develop high-quality aircraft aerodynamic configurations and provide aerodynamic support to all functions involved in the design, development, certification and support of Bombardier aircraft.
What are your contributions to the team?
During your internship, you can contribute by:
· Generating aerodynamic solutions using CFD software in support of Flight Sciences, Loads & Dynamics, Thermodynamics, and Systems requirements;
· Producing estimates of external pressure distributions, aerodynamic loads, and stability derivatives for specific Bombardier products, and validate these results with experimental data;
· Developing complex CFD workflows and integrate various tools to enable aircraft design and multi-disciplinary optimizations;
· Developing novel mesh generation, deformation and adaptation techniques, compatible with in-house and/or commercially available grid generation packages;
· Predicting aircraft drag, low-speed characteristics, and stall onset.
How to thrive in this role?
During your internship, you will learn:
· State-of-the-art ASO and CFD workflows for the aerodynamic design and analysis of various aircraft configurations in a range of flight regimes;
· Best practices for CFD-based aerodynamic design and tool development in an industrial environment;
· How to develop aerodynamic configurations to meet design requirements and interact with external and internal customers and partners to define optimal aerodynamic configurations.
What we are looking for
· You are currently enrolled in a Canadian academic institution for a master’s degree in engineering;
· You have theoretical knowledge in fluid mechanics and aerodynamics;
· You have theoretical knowledge of compressible Navier-Stokes numerical methods (CFD);
· You have experience with commercial tools for mesh generation, RANS CFD solvers, and CAD;
· You have experience with coding in Python, shell script programming, and LINUX environment;
· You have good communication skills in both French and English;
· You are eligible to work in Canada.
