CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Residential Building Overheating in Australia
CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.
CSIRO owns and developed the AccuRate software and Chenath thermal performance calculation engine which underpin the nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS). It has become increasingly clear that with the current rating methodology, high star rated dwellings can potentially be overheated especially during extreme hot weather conditions. This postdoctoral position will work with senior research scientists to better understand overheating and develop strategies for the software, scheme and industry to mitigate the effects of overheating in high star rated dwellings.
