Description:
Automotive Cabin Heating Thermal Comfort Simulation Fix (STAR-CCM+ .sim + TAITherm Human Thermal / Berkeley Comfort)

We are looking for an engineer who can run and troubleshoot an automotive cabin heating thermal comfort simulation using:

- Simcenter STAR-CCM+ (.sim) for cabin airflow/temperature fields
- TAITherm Human Thermal / HTE + Berkeley Comfort for occupant comfort outputs

Task goal (what you need to deliver)
We have a simplified cabin model. Under a cold ambient heating scenario, the current results are abnormal: occupant thermal sensation/comfort improves briefly and then becomes colder again (e.g., TS drops toward -1 and continues decreasing). We need you to diagnose the root cause and correct the model setup/coupling/mapping so the outputs are physically reasonable.

Target requirements (high level):
- Transient duration: 1800 s (30 min)
- Monitoring temperatures: foot/foot-vent zone around ~35°C, head point around ~20°C (exact monitor definitions will be shared privately)
- Comfort trend: overall thermal sensation & comfort must be normal/stable (after heating ramps up, it should not “get colder again”)

What we expect from you
- Identify why comfort trend becomes colder (typical causes include MRT/radiation boundary, incorrect field-to-human mapping of Ta/Tr/velocity/RH, initialization/restart issues, boundary leakage on cut surfaces, etc.)
- Provide corrected settings + clear explanation of what was wrong and what you changed
- Provide plots/outputs for monitoring temperatures + comfort metrics (TS/PMV/PPD or equivalent)

Required experience (please do NOT apply if you don’t have this)
- Hands-on experience with STAR-CCM+ transient cabin HVAC/thermal
- Hands-on experience with TAITherm Human Thermal / Berkeley Comfort (not only CFD)
- Ability to actually run the case (access to software/licenses or a workable setup)

Confidentiality
Due to confidentiality, we will share the detailed model files and full requirement document after you confirm capability.

Please answer these in your proposal:

1) Have you used TAITherm Human Thermal / HTE + Berkeley Comfort in real projects? Share 1–2 lines of what you did (no confidential details).
2) Do you have access to STAR-CCM+ and TAITherm comfort/human modules to run the model? (Yes/No)
3) List your top 3 likely causes when cabin heating comfort “gets colder again” (keywords are fine: MRT/radiation, mapping, restart/initialization, boundary condition, cut-surface leakage, etc.)
4) What is your estimated time (days) to deliver corrected results + explanation?
5)Tell me how much you would charge for my task.
