ENGINEER - RESEARCH ENGINEER - FLUID MACHINERY SYSTEMS
Develop fluid or structural solutions for machinery systems using engineering principles, design practices, and engineering software tools.
Utilize instrumentation to measure and understand industrial machinery systems, including electronics and data acquisition systems.
Interface with customers on projects, including proposals, reports, and meetings.
Travel to client sites for field testing.
Previous experience in any of the following areas is highly desired but not mandatory:
field testing and troubleshooting of pulsation and vibration problems in piping systems, piping system acoustics, ASME pressure vessel design.
Promote organizational and laboratory capabilities at industry events and conferences.
Perform evaluations and analysis of structural and fluid problems of machinery and associated plant systems particularly for the energy industry, measure pulsation and vibration data in an effort to diagnosis machinery performance issues.
Perform transient fluid modeling simulations; perform finite element analysis using ANSYS or similar tools; prepare and or run structural and fluid models of fluid handling machinery (compressors, pumps, etc.
) and piping systems to identify behaviors, response to inputs.
Assist in the development of software and diagnostic tools to enhance data collection and analysis, machinery system modeling, diagnose and solve existing machinery problems and the design of improved fluid handling machinery systems.
Conduct laboratory research required by clients and directed at finding solutions and advancements for fluid handling machinery; independently write technical reports, proposals and technical presentations.
Oversee and manage project technical activities, cost, and scheduling; deal directly with customers and supervise technical staff; develop and deliver presentations to customers; participate in conferences and other events to actively promote SwRI business.
Requires a Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent with course work in fluids and mechanical design.
0-1 years:
Prefer at least one year of engineering experience, ideally with machinery related experience preferred; familiar with instrumentation used for laboratory experiments, electronics, and data acquisition systems.
Some design experience is preferred.
Must have sufficient written and communication skills for the preparation of technical reports, proposals, and presentations.
Must be able to work in a team or independently with minimum oversight.
Prefer modeling experience with tools such as HYSYS, Synergi Pipeline Simulator (SPS) for fluid modeling or finite element analysis using ANSYS, structural dynamics, AISC structural design, ASME B31.
3 piping design, and Caesar II for structural models.
A valid/clear driver's license is required.
Recommended Skills Ansys Communication Compressors Data Collection Electronics Experimentation Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
