News - I greatly appreciate your comments below and surprisingly plenty of information and valuable advices came to me during the last one year. Thanks to all your concern, I finally accepted a thermal expert position in ABB USA (www.abb.com) and am sitting in North Carolina.
I particularly thank the three companies in England, France and America that I personally consulted for and their encouraging recommendations. I cherish the experiences I have obtained from the part-time working with them.

Within my PhD study, I have published eight research papers. Four of them are in leading journals and their links are as follows:
- Numerical prediction of local hot-spot phenomena in transformer windings. Applied Thermal Engineering. 2012 April; 36: 96-105. DOI: 10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2011.11.054
- Computational fluid dynamics calibration for network modelling of transformer cooling oil flows - part I heat transfer in oil ducts. IET Research Journals - Electrical Power Applications (formerly IEE Proceedings). 2012 January; 6(1): 19-27. DOI: 10.1049/iet-epa.2011.0004
- Computational fluid dynamics calibration for network modelling of transformer cooling flows - Part II: pressure loss at junction nodes. IET Research Journals - Electrical Power Applications (formerly IEE Proceedings). 2012 January; 6(1): 28-34. DOI: 10.1049/iet-epa.2011.0005

I am graduating in September 2011 with a PhD degree from School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Manchester. I am looking for a numerical modelling job.
I spent the past more than three years on the CFD simulations which are coupling between electric, thermal and fluid dynamic fields, from which I have accumulated rich experiences on modelling packages such as SALOME, Code_Saturne, Elmer, ParaView and COMSOL etc. I share experiences in this blog, which has also gained worldwide popularity.
I have been programming in C/C++, C#, VB.NET and Matlab since 2002. I also have experiences in Python (the script widely used for automation of modelling and the software such as SALOME and ParaView etc) and Fortran (the user routine definition for Code_Saturne) etc. Meanwhile, probably as a bonus, I am a fan of open-source software, Linux and Mac OS X. I even wrote device drivers for Linux and ported the MySQL client tool running on desktops onto embedded Linux platforms.
I bear high interests in numerical modelling and would like to pursue a career in this field. If you have relevant opportunities, please drop me an email (salad00 at gmail dot com). I really appreciate your help very much.
