We are seeking an experienced Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) specialist for a critical research project focused on electric vehicle (EV) fire safety in a large underground parking structure. The objective is to model and simulate several fire scenarios to analyze heat and smoke propagation, assess tenability conditions, and evaluate the effectiveness of built-in fire protection systems. The results will form a key component of a research thesis.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop a 3D FDS model based on architectural and mechanical plans to be provided. Set up and execute a series of fire simulations based on predefined scenarios, including cases with and without mechanical ventilation and active fire suppression. Conduct a thorough analysis of simulation outputs to extract key data points and trends. Prepare and deliver a comprehensive package of results in a structured and timely manner. Required Deliverables: The successful candidate will be responsible for providing a complete set of deliverables, including:
Raw Simulation Data: Exported CSV files for key output variables, including time-history data for temperature, visibility, gas concentrations (CO/HCN), and total Heat Release Rate (HRR) at specified locations. Visual Outputs: A set of high-resolution images from Smokeview, including temperature and smoke density maps at key time intervals (e.g., 5 minutes into the simulation). Sequential images for video generation may also be requested.
Structured Analysis Framework: As a core component of the analysis, you will be required to populate a set of predefined summary tables. This involves a systematic, minute-by-minute documentation of key performance indicators (such as maximum temperature, visibility levels, etc.) and a qualitative assessment based on simulation observations. This framework is designed to ensure all research questions are methodically answered.
Comparative Summary: A brief report analyzing the key differences and outcomes between the simulated scenarios. Qualifications:
Proven expertise in FDS and Smokeview. Strong professional background in fire engineering, CFD, and heat transfer. Demonstrable experience in modeling fires in complex geometries. Experience with vehicle or EV fires is a significant asset. Ability to deliver precise, well-documented results under a tight deadline.
