Job Description


University of Surrey

Norway, Trondheim

About the job

The postdoctoral fellowship position is a temporary position where the main goal is to qualify for work in senior academic positions.

There are ambitious plans for offshore wind in the North Sea and Norwegian Sea in the coming years. Wake dynamics from multiple large floating wind farms offshore are complex and their interactions with the atmospheric boundary layer are not completely understood. While wind energy companies depend on strong winds to maximize energy production, the use of wind energy is a fundamental component of seabird ecology with many species relying on winds to conserve energy during flight while foraging at sea. The energy expenditure of seabirds depends on both the effect of turbine wakes on wind velocities at different heights as well as their impact on air temperature and how this might modify thermal updrafts over the sea. The BIRDWAKE project is an exciting opportunity to work with high-fidelity simulations of wind turbine wakes considering different wind farm and turbine designs in collaboration with scientists modelling seabird flight dynamics at NINA (Norwegian Institute for Nature Research). Your place of work will be at the new Norwegian Ocean Technology Center. 

Your immediate leader is Head of Department. Your supervisor is Professor Erin Bachynski-Polić.

Duties of the position


	Analysis of existing LES data of offshore velocity and temperature wakes
	Mapping of wakes from planned Norwegian offshore wind development scenarios using simplified models (i.e. Fuga) 
	High-fidelity simulation of wake behavior from 1-3 turbines under varying atmospheric conditions relevant during the seabird breeding season for selected species 
	Development of simplified models for temperature wakes depending on turbine characteristics, operational profile, and atmospheric conditions


Required selection criteria


	You must have completed a Norwegian doctoral degree or corresponding foreign doctoral degree recognized as equivalent to a Norwegian PhD in fluid dynamics, marine technology, aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, or similar. 
	If you can document that the PhD thesis has been submitted, your application can be assessed even if you have not yet defended your dissertation. Documentation of the obtained doctoral degree must be presented before you can take up the position. 
	Excellent analytical skills and familiarity with computational fluid dynamics
	Good written and oral English language skills


The appointment is to be made in accordance with Regulations on terms of employment for positions such as postdoctoral fellow, Ph.D Candidate, research assistant and specialist candidate.
