Day to Day Responsibilities:
The thermal analyst will perform comprehensive modelling of the entire missile including ground systems throughout the entire lifecycle of the system using standardized processes and tools
Account for all possible thermal heating methods (conduction, convection, solar and Earth radiation, albedo, free molecular heating, etc.) experienced throughout mission
Coordinate TPS, component design, and material selection from a thermal POV
Collaborate, collect, and integrate transient/steady state data from other teams to map onto thermal models as needed for enhanced fidelity
Perform preliminary hand calculations and 1D models (backside temperatures, bulk temperatures, ablation, erosion, etc.) before maturing analyses
Collaborate with test team to identify data needs for thermal analysis, including conditioning methods, sensor placements, and environmental factors.
Required Skills:
5+ years of experience in thermal modeling and analysis
Proficiency with NX Simulation (Simcenter)
Hands-on experience with thermal analysis tools such as SINDA/FLUINT, Thermal Desktop, or equivalent can be considered
Professional background in thermophysics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and/or aerodynamics Desired Skills:
Proficiency in MATLAB for data analysis and modeling
Experience with model testing and thermal vacuum testing
