The purpose of this role is to lead the development and delivery of an experimental database for the EPSRC National Wind Tunnel Facility.
The UK National Wind Tunnel Facility (NWTF https://www.nwtf.ac.uk), is coordinated by Imperial College London. This initiative involves 22 tunnels distributed across 11 UK universities which are open to external users, both university and industry based. This post comes as the current project moves into a new phase with a greater emphasis on developing a UK and international community network.
This post will lead the development and delivery of an experimental database for the EPSRC National Wind Tunnel Facility (NWTF) Network grant. The NWTF contains a wide range of experimental facilities that generate high quality measurements in a variety of application areas. However, the dissemination of this data is variable and this post will work with groups across the UK to ensure that data is made openly available and that this is accessible, understandable and consistent across the research groups. As such the postholder may be required to make short multi-day visits to other Universities to help facilitate the extraction of data. An example of a typical dataset is available on the Loughborough University data repository: https://repository.lboro.ac.uk/articles/dataset/Windsor_Body_Experimental_Aerodynamic_Dataset/13161284
Closing Date: 10 January 2023.
Interviews will provisionally be held w/c 23 January 2023.
