Are you passionate about changing the world's energy future? If so, we have an amazing opportunity for you!

🔬 Internship Description: Join us in a paid internship to contribute to cutting-edge research on modeling molten salt infiltration into porous graphite. This project involves solving a two-phase flow problem using coupled Navier-Stokes and phase-field methods implemented within the MOOSE (Multiphysics Object-oriented Simulation Environment) framework.

🌟 Your Role:
Debug and enhance the current model implementation in MOOSE
Conduct verification cases using literature benchmarks
Validate simulations with experimental results
Document findings in a comprehensive report

🛠 Qualifications:
Currently enrolled full-time in a Doctorate Degree Program at an accredited college/university studying Nuclear Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Material Science, or a related field
Experience or coursework in fluid mechanics and finite element methods
Knowledge of phase-field modeling
Working experience with C++ programming
Experience in MOOSE
Minimum overall GPA of 3.0
Authorization to work in the U.S. (including CPT and OPT)

🗓 Details:
Report to the Computational Mechanics and Materials group
Work a 9x80 schedule onsite at our Idaho Falls campus
Internship start date and duration vary based on project and student availability
Potential eligibility for course credit upon university approval
If you're ready to make an impact and gain valuable experience, we encourage you to apply! Let's change the world's energy future together! 🌍💡
