Job Description

Qualification:

ME / M.Tech / BE: Thermal /Heat Power/ Mechanical / Automobile

Experience Range:

1 to 3 Years

Roles & Responsibilities:

Perform 3D CFD simulations of battery modules and packs for thermal management and cooling system evaluation.
Handle the complete simulation lifecycle:

Pre-processing: Geometry cleanup, meshing, and boundary condition definition.

Simulation Setup & Execution: Solver settings, run monitoring, and troubleshooting.

Post-processing & Analysis: Extraction of thermal maps, temperature distribution, flow behavior, pressure drops, and result interpretation.

Conduct correlation and validation against test data to ensure accuracy and model reliability.
Provide solution recommendations based on CFD results to improve thermal performance and cooling efficiency.
Collaborate with global counterparts for alignment on simulation objectives, model assumptions, result discussions and design suggestion.
Ensure adherence to simulation quality criteria and document all aspects of the workflow
Maintain simulation templates, methods, and process improvements for battery CFD activities.

Must Have:

2+ years of hands-on experience in thermal CFD simulations of battery packs/modules.
Experience in battery electrical-thermal simulation
Proficiency in CFD tools such as STAR-CCM+, Fluent, or equivalent 3D solvers.
Expert in EV battery thermal management and cooling methods, with experience in 3D thermal modeling to guide design decisions across key battery components.
Ability to define correct boundary conditions, material properties (e.g., anisotropic conductivity), and heat generation profiles.
Expertise in post-processing and generating meaningful engineering reports and visualizations.
Experience with result plausibility checks, bug identification, and solver troubleshooting.
Knowledge of quality metrics to ensure accurate CFD models.
Strong analytical thinking, technical judgment, and problem-solving skills.
Good communication and team collaboration skills, with the ability to work across regions and functions.
Flexible to attend early/late meetings with global teams or travel occasionally if needed.
Good interpersonal skills, Communication skills, presentation skills and Team player
Good Analytical skills, Research oriented mindset, learning attitude & self-driven personality
Strong knowledge of CFD theory & domain.
Flexibility for international travel.

Good to Have:

Exposure to simulation scripting for automation (e.g., Python, Java macros in STAR-CCM+).
Knowledge of preprocessing tool, space claim, NX, CATIA for CFD modelling
Understanding of battery cell behavior, electro-thermal coupling, or aging effects in CFD.
Awareness of industry standards (e.g., UN 38.3, ISO 12405) related to battery safety and testing.
Familiarity with simulation method development and template creation.
Automotive industry experience preferred.
Strong Knowledge in Automotive domain & functionality.
