A PhD position is available in my research group, which is focused on numerical modelling of multiphase flows. The project involves developing numerical techniques based on the lattice Boltzmann method to perform direct numerical simulations of laminar and turbulent emulsion flows laden with solid particles. This project is funded by the NSERC Alliance Advantage Grant in collaboration with Syncrude Canada Ltd. The project's overarching goal is to improve bitumen recovery, a continuing primary focus of the oils sand industry that leads to two essential objectives: production and environmental sustainability. Improved bitumen recovery minimizes the loss of valuable resources, making more efficient use of the available assets while reducing the need for additional extraction efforts, minimizing energy and water consumption and leading to lower GHG emissions. If you are a curious person who enjoys learning and working in the areas of numerical methods, programming, and fluid mechanics and communicates well in English, I welcome your application! This position is open to Canadian citizens, permanent residents of Canada, and international applicants with relevant Mechanical or Chemical Engineering degrees. he successful candidate will work in a supporting and inspiring environment that facilitates their successful progression. The technical and professional development training will be specific to the candidate to target their preferred career path and personal growth. The candidate will have opportunities to participate in national and international conferences.
