Overview The Engine BTE-Friction-Thermal Virtual Analysis engineer will work within the Propulsion Systems Virtual Engineering team and collaborate with Product Release Centers (PRCs) and other stakeholders to support product development and methodological activities through CAE in the area of Engine Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), Engine Friction, and Engine Thermal analysis. This position reports to the Global CAE Manager of the discipline. Robust technical, interpersonal, and team leadership skills are essential. Responsibilities Engine 1 D/0 D fuel economy assessment. Engine structural thermal model (STM) development. Engine lube circuit model development. Cranktrain friction model development. Valvetrain friction model development. Piston group friction model development. Timing chain/belt friction model development. Balance shaft module (BSM) friction model development. Front end auxiliary drive (FEAD) friction model development. Electrical‐hydraulic‐mechanical devices models development. Perform optimization analysis to ensure the best trade‐off over performance.
Execute detailed studies, including root‐cause analysis on issues, identification and validation of enablers for meeting the target. Convert detailed models to fast‐running (FR) and real‐time (RT) ones. Model connection/coupling for integrated system simulation. Develop innovative solutions for fuel economy, friction, and thermal improvement. Perform correlation activities to demonstrate virtual analysis confidence level. Coordinate execution of CAE activities for propulsion systems programs, including timely delivery of status versus target and proactive identification/validation of enablers. Technical synthesis, reporting, and communication with clear takeaways, executive summary, and, if needed, risk mitigation plan. Direct interaction with STLA stakeholders for all steering activities: input data collection, assumptions validation, results revision, and communication. Qualifications Master of Sci
