Job Description
Fluid System Design Engineer - Test Rig Design (Submarines)
Full Time
Derby
Fluid System Design Engineers to undertake rig design to support both Verification and Validation (V&V) and production testing of Nuclear Steam Raising Plant components. The role involves working as part of Integrated Project Teams to design new and modify existing multi-million-pound test rig designs, the bulk of which are in our Test Laboratory at our main offices at Raynesway in Derby.
What you will be doing:
* Generating requirements, scoping work, and planning tasks in conjunction with stakeholders.
* Applying standard fluid flow and thermal hydraulic theory to inform and justify design decisions around system layout, component selection and sizing. Examples include:
* Creation of Pipework and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID), and the associated valve and equipment schedules.
* Pump, valve (inc. safety relief) and heat exchanger sizing and selection.
* Development of 1D system flow models, derivation of loss coefficients etc.
* Development of operating philosophies and high-level control system logic.
Who we’re looking for:
* Experience of design of process plant facilities, such as oil and gas pipework systems or chemical process facilities, is desirable.
* Experience, where possible, in a relevant, heavily regulated industry, such as Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Energy, Water or Nuclear.
* Experience of specifying, designing, justifying, or operating complex fluid/chemical process systems.
* Degree (or equivalent) in mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, or another science or engineering discipline with thermo-fluids content.
* Track record of delivering solutions against specific customer requirements to time, cost, and quality.
* Sound knowledge of engineering principles, process safety, and applicable codes & standards.
* Understanding of design process and design and safety assessment processes and tools e.g., HAZOP/HAZID/SWIFT/FMEAs etc.
* Desirable to have experience in the use of 1D flow modelling software (specifically FloMaster).
To work for the Rolls-Royce Submarines business an individual has to hold a Security Check clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you do not currently already have this in place.
Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets we can only progress applications from individuals who are a UK national or, in MoD approved cases, a dual national.
