Job description

Date Posted: 05/06/2026 Req ID: 47908 Faculty/Division: Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering Department: Dept of Mechanical & Industrial Eng Campus: St. George (Downtown Toronto) Existing Vacancy: Yes Description: Course number and title: MIE1210H – Computational Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Course description: MIE1210 is an introductory course that will teach a Finite Volume (FV) and Finite Difference (FD) approaches to Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Heat Transfer. Since the advent of commercially available computers, CFD has been an important engineering research domain as it gave researchers the ability to solve analytically intractable problems of industrial relevance. In the last two decades, the immense demand for CFD research and expertise has spawned the commercialization of software packages such as Fluent/CFX and FEMlab. Despite these readily available software packages, there is a recognized importance to user expertise, fundamental knowledge, and critical understanding of their inner workings. In addition, home spun research codes are still prominent in academia and industry. This is due in large part to the fact that commercial software packages are ge...
