About the Role
As a Task Executor – Aerodynamics, you will use Flow5 v7 to complete assigned aerodynamic analysis workflows involving foils, wings, aircraft, hydrofoils, and sails. You will receive the required geometry files, project files, operating conditions, and execution steps, and you will follow them exactly. Your work may include modifying geometries, configuring analyses, generating conforming meshes, running Type 1 or Type 2 polars, and exporting the requested results. You will save all outputs using the specified names and locations, record your screen when required, and report any ambiguity without guessing or improvising.
What You'll Do
- Open and inspect foil, plane, mesh, and project files in Flow5.
- Build or modify foils, wings, planes, hydrofoils, and other assigned geometries.
- Configure operating conditions, polar settings, geometry parameters, and mesh requirements.
- Generate conforming meshes and run Type 1 or Type 2 polar analyses.
- Save and export modified geometries, polar results, screenshots, and other requested outputs.
- Record assigned tasks and report unexpected results, unclear instructions, or application mismatches.
You're a Good Fit If You
- Required skills: Classical Mechanics
- Demonstrate hands-on experience with Flow5, XFoil, or XFLR5.
- Configure aerodynamic analyses, run polar calculations, and generate meshes independently.
- Understand airfoil files, span, chord, twist, polar settings, and mesh conformance at an operator level.
- Follow detailed instructions precisely and enter all geometry and operating values exactly as provided.
- Maintain strong attention to detail and avoid unrequested changes, extra runs, or assumptions.
- Maintain a reliable remote setup for screen recording, file delivery, and clear written English communication.
