Project description
Join our world-leading experimental fluid mechanics research group with this PhD studentship in the field of Experimental Aerodynamics and Environmental Flows. You will become a part of a group of highly motivated researchers in the experimental fluid mechanics research laboratory whose efforts are directed towards using state-of-the-art diagnostics to understand the physics of turbulent flows. We are part of the National Wind Tunnel Facility of the UK
and have several wind tunnels and water channels on site for studying experimental fluid mechanics (see ****The aim of this research project is to apply novel laboratory techniques to simulate environmental wind patterns and air pollution around buildings. You will be involved in the design and manufacture of a bespoke building model for windtunnel/watertunnel testing. You will be trained in laser-diagnostic methods including Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Planar Laser-Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) in order to perform measurements of the flow encountering and entering the building. These experiments will provide cutting-edge measurements to analyse the aerodynamic processes linking outdoor and indoor air quality.
This project is supported by the UKRI FLF project “ Simulating urban air pollution in the lab
” and aims to improve our capability to model and predict urban air quality in support of designing our sustainable cities of the future. There will be opportunities to explore the fundamental physics of the turbulent aerodynamics of atmospheric boundary layer flows. There will also be opportunities to network with other universities and with industries such as DSTL through our existing involvement in the Future Urban Ventilation Network
and the UK Fluids Network

Entry Requirements:
Candidates require (or are expected to gain) a very good undergraduate degree in Engineering (at least a UK 2:1 honours degree, or its international equivalent). You should have a keen interest in fluid mechanics. An aptitude for experimental methods and computer programming for data analysis is desirable.
Funding:
International applications are welcomed although availability of funding is limited. For UK students, funding includes tuition Fees and a stipend of £15,609 tax-free per annum for up to 3.5 years.
Closing date
Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis, but should be received no later than 31 May 2022 for standard admissions.
How To Apply:
Applications should be made online at ****Select programme type (Research), 2022/23, Faculty of Physical Sciences and Engineering, next page select “PhD Engineering & Environment (Full time)”. In Section 2 of the application form you should insert the name of the supervisor Christina Vanderwel.
