CIFRE-PhD Numerical modeling of fire dynamics and flame-wall interaction for decarbonized propulsion

Advance numerical combustion methods to predict fire resistance and heat fluxes on walls for decarbonized propulsion fuels. Join a multidisciplinary propulsion team in Toulouse to enhance the AVBP solver using Large Eddy Simulation (LES), improving LES parameters and combustion models for flame-wall interaction, multi-phase fuel injection, SAF spray flames, and aerothermal/radiative coupling. Validate models with Airbus and partner test-bench databases and perform high-fidelity simulations in realistic engine-compartment geometries.
