About this position

SRM Institute of Science and Technology is advertising an Institute fellowship for a PhD in aerodynamics at its Mechanical Engineering Department, Kattankulathur campus, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

The research topic is “Development of subsonic wind tunnel blockage corrections for 155 mm projectile”. The PhD scholar will work on wind tunnel experiments and CFD simulations using scaled models of a 155 mm projectile at different blockage ratios. The project aims to develop blockage corrections for drag, lift, and pitching moment coefficients.

Funding: stipend of INR 31,000 per month, increased to INR 37,000 per month for candidates who have qualified GATE. The fellowship is available for 3 years.

Eligibility / notes: international applications are welcome. The post is clearly research-oriented and suited to candidates with interests in aerodynamics, fluid mechanics, computational fluid dynamics, and experimental wind tunnel testing.

How to apply: email your resume to [email protected]. Also review the PhD application guidelines on the SRM IST admissions portal and mention CFD Jobs Database record #20193 when responding.

Deadline: Sunday, 25 October 2026.
