Discipline : Energy Engineering, Thermodynamics, Process Engineering (section 62 of National Council of Universities - CNU)
Affiliation : IMT Nord Europe
Unit : Centre for Energy and Environment
Line Manager : Director of the Centre for Energy and Environment
Type of contract : Permanent academic position of assistant professor
Workplace : Douai (France)
CONTEXT
Public establishment belonging to IMT (Institut Mines-Télécom), placed under the supervision of the Ministry of Economy, Finance and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty, IMT Nord Europe has three main objectives: providing our students with ethically responsible engineering practice enabling them to solve 21st century issues, carrying out our R&D activities leading to outstanding innovations and supporting territorial development through innovation and entrepreneurship. Ideally positioned at the heart of Europe, 1 hour away from Paris, 30 min from Brussels and 1h30 from London, IMT Nord Europe has strong ambitions to become a main actor of the current industrial, digital and environmental transitions, by combining education and research on engineering and digital technologies.
Located on two main campuses dedicated to research and education in Douai and Lille, IMT Nord Europe offers research facilities of almost 20,000m² in the following areas:

The position is to be filled within the Energy and Environment Teaching, Research, and Innovation Center (CERI EE). In addition to doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, this center includes 30 teacher-researchers, 12 engineers and technicians, and 2 administrative assistants. It is currently organized into two research domains: Atmospheric Sciences and Energy Efficiency of Components, Systems and Processes. CERI EE also has an instrumental technical center and several national and international centers of expertise.
IMT Nord Europe wishes to strengthen the skills of CERI EE, within the Energy, Fluids and Transfers team.
The candidate will join this research team, which focuses on intensifying transfer phenomena in thermo-fluidic components at various scales. The targeted applications are in the fields of process engineering and energetics, especially for society decarbonization purposes. Experimental and numerical approaches are concurrently employed to improve energy efficiency at the component, energy system, or process scale. This generally requires enhancing performance by means of flow control, use of rheological behavior of complex fluids, surface structuring, and, if applicable, transfers in solid parts.
ACTIVITIES
Under the authority of the Director of the Energy and Environment CERI (Teaching, Research, and Innovation Center), the position holder will actively participate in both teaching activities and the development of research and technology transfer projects within the Energy, Fluids and Transfers team.
Teaching Activities
The position holder must have expertise in the fields of Thermodynamics, Heat and mass transfer, both theoretical and practical, which will enable him/her to be involved at various levels in the teaching process.
Specifically, he/she will:
Research and Technology Transfer Activities
The main mission of the position holder is to undertake developments related to the research team's activities. Specifically, he/she will:
REQUIRED PROFILE
The candidate must have recognized scientific and technical skills to successfully carry out the aforementioned missions.
He/she is capable of implementing an integrated approach that includes the thermodynamic modeling of elementary components and the system integration of innovative components. He/she possesses the knowledge to conduct exergy, thermoeconomic, and environmental analyses, as well as the optimization of thermodynamic cycles and systems. Proficiency in using software such as Matlab, TRNSYS, Dymola, OpenModelica, Comsol Multiphysics is desired.
This job position would be suitable for candidates interested in teaching and research with partners, holding a PhD degree in the fields of Thermodynamics, Heat and mass transfer or Process Engineering. Postdoctoral experience and project management experience will be greatly appreciated.
