Mechanical Engineering internship: reduced order modelling on multiphase flows

Mechanical Engineering Internship: Reduced Order Modelling on Multiphase Flows

Introduction

ASML is the world's leading provider of lithography systems for the semiconductor industry, manufacturing complex machines that are critical to the production of integrated circuits or chips. We utilize Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to ensure the optimal environmental conditions of the optical components in its machines to maximize output, expand lifetime and minimize service intervals.

Your Assignment

Within the Flow Modelling community at ASML, we would like to explore Reduced Order Model (ROM) techniques applied to data derived from CFD in multiphase flows. This internship assignment aims to investigate the physics of the problem and generate data in a structured and organized way.

Your tasks and responsibilities may include:

• Define a comprehensive Design of Experiment (DOE);
• Create a corresponding CFD model and perform calculations;
• Extract data and analyze results;
• Create first ROM with an existing application;
• Document your findings and present results.

This is a bachelor or master internship, suitable for both an apprenticeship and a graduation (thesis) project. The desired duration is 6 months or more, working 5 days a week (3 days onsite). The start date is as soon as possible or at the latest around September 2025.

Your Profile

To be a match for this internship, you:

• Are a bachelor or master student in Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering;
• Have experience in network modeling for fluid flow system;
• Preferably have experience in starCCM+ or with using High Performance Cluster;
• Preferably have an affinity with Data Analytics;
• Have strong analytical skills and a problem-solving mentality;
• Have good communication skills in English (verbal and written).

Other requirements you need to meet

• You are enrolled at an educational institute for the entire duration of the internship;
• You are located in the Netherlands to perform your internship. In case you are currently living/studying outside of the Netherlands, your CV/motivation letter includes the willingness to relocate;
• If you are a non-EU citizen, studying in the Netherlands, your university is willing to sign the documents relevant for doing an internship (i.e., Nuffic agreement).

This position requires access to controlled technology, as defined in the United States Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R. § 730, et seq.). Qualified candidates must be legally authorized to access such controlled technology prior to beginning work. Business demands may require ASML to proceed with candidates who are immediately eligible to access controlled technology.
