About the Opportunity

We are looking for four highly motivated Chemical Engineering interns from premier institutes (IITs/NITs) to work on cutting-edge projects in process modelling, simulation, and data science.

This internship will focus on integrating mechanistic modelling (CFD, DEM) with modern data-driven approaches (AI/ML) to solve complex engineering problems in fluid and particulate systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and apply Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models for fluid flow, heat, and mass transfer
  • Build and analyze Discrete Element Method (DEM) models for particle and powder systems
  • Create and modify CAD geometries for simulation workflows
  • Write efficient Python scripts for data analysis, model automation, and visualization
  • Apply machine learning and AI techniques for predictive modelling and optimization
  • Integrate physics-based models with data-driven approaches
  • Analyze results and generate actionable insights
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams and present findings

Eligibility Criteria

  • Pursuing B.Tech  in Chemical or Mechanical Engineering
  • From IITs, NITs, or equivalent premier institutes
  • Strong foundation in:
    • Transport phenomena
    • Mechanical operations

Desired Skills

  • Exposure to one or more of the following:
    • CFD tools: ANSYS Fluent, OpenFOAM, COMSOL
    • DEM tools: EDEM, LIGGGHTS, Rocky
    • CAD software: SolidWorks, AutoCAD
  • Strong programming skills in Python (NumPy, pandas, matplotlib, etc.)
  • Basic understanding of machine learning / AI concepts
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capability

What You Will Gain

  • Hands-on experience with CFD, DEM, and CAD tools
  • Exposure to AI/ML applications in engineering workflows
  • Opportunity to work on industry-relevant, high-impact projects
  • Mentorship from experienced scientists and engineers
  • Potential pathway to full-time opportunities
