The National Energy Technology Laboratory's (NETL's) record of success has been built on understanding the future of energy and the technologies required to make that future possible. We’ve long touted our success in developing the technologies that took on acid rain in the 1970s and mercury in the early 2000s. More recently, NETL has a leading role in President Biden’s ambitious climate goals, including a carbon emission-free power sector by 2035 and a net-zero economy by 2050.
Program Goals
The NETL Postgraduate Research Program (PGRP) is a high-intensity program designed to identify recent Master’s and Doctoral graduates of high promise and to foster advanced skill development. It allows the postgraduate to systematically outline career goals and helps provide the means of achieving these goals. NETL principal investigators and leads serve as mentors to PGRP participants during the program. This interaction affords the postgraduate a unique opportunity to develop critical skills needed to become an independent professional.
The program goals include providing the opportunity to participants to:
Project Details
Through the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE), this posting seeks a post-Doctoral or post-Master's researcher to engage in projects with the Research Innovation Center (RIC) at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in the area of CFD for Advanced Reactor Design (CARD) under the mentorship of Mary Ann Clarke. This project will be hosted at the NETL Morgantown, WV campus.
The participant will learn to navigate and incorporate new physical models into the Multiphase Flow with Interphase eXchanges Exa scale code (MFIX-Exa), a high-performance, massively parallel, machine agnostic, multiphase flow code. Specifically, the participant will analyze available radiation heat transfer and electro-magnetic PIC models and determine best practices for their integration and/or coupling to MFIX-Exa. The purpose of the project is to develop a computational framework that can be used to advance development and understanding of novel energy reactors that incorporate microwave heating. Ideally, participant will demonstrate research success through further advancing the utility of MFIX-Exa.
All research will be non-proprietary. Any code developed will be open source. The participant may publish in open literature.
The participant will learn to read, alter and compile MFIX-Exa, perform code verification exercises, and acquire expertise related to incorporating new scientific models into an existing CFD code. The participant will benefit from NETL expertise in code development, verification and validation methods, and software management.
Stipend: The selected participant will receive a monthly stipend commensurate with educational level and experience.
Deliverables: To document the effectiveness of the program, participants are required to submit a pre-appointment and post-appointment survey, as well as a reflection on their appointment experience when they renew or end their appointment. The reflection should summarize their project(s), additional activities, and overall experience. Details are provided as the appointment end date approaches.
Participants may also have the opportunity to contribute to manuscripts, journal articles, book chapters, conference presentations, posters, patents, and other publications as a part of their appointment. Such achievements should also be reported to ORISE; additional details are provided after an offer has been accepted.
The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), part of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) national laboratory system, is owned and operated by the DOE. NETL supports the DOE mission to advance the energy security of the United States. This is an educational opportunity offered by NETL and administered by the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education. Participants in the program are not considered employees of NETL, DOE, the program administrator, or any other office or agency.
