We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Refrigeration Design Engineer to join our team in Mumbai. The successful candidate will be responsible for the design, development, and optimization of various refrigeration systems, ensuring they meet performance, efficiency, and safety standards. This role requires a strong understanding of thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and practical experience in designing industrial or commercial refrigeration solutions.
- Lead the design and engineering of complex refrigeration systems, including vapor compression, absorption, and cryogenic systems, for various applications.
- Perform detailed heat load calculations, pressure drop analysis, and energy consumption assessments to optimize system performance and efficiency.
- Select appropriate refrigeration components such as compressors, condensers, evaporators, expansion valves, and controls, based on project specifications and industry best practices.
- Develop comprehensive Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs), general arrangement drawings, and detailed mechanical layouts using CAD software.
- Generate 3D models and simulations to visualize designs, identify potential clashes, and ensure constructability and maintainability.
- Ensure all designs comply with relevant international and local codes, standards (e.g., ASHRAE, ISHRAE, ASME), and safety regulations.
- Collaborate closely with project managers, sales teams, manufacturing, and installation teams to ensure seamless project execution from concept to commissioning.
- Conduct design reviews, risk assessments, and provide technical support during the procurement, fabrication, installation, and testing phases.
- Prepare detailed technical specifications, bills of materials (BOMs), and cost estimates for proposed refrigeration solutions.
- Troubleshoot existing refrigeration systems and propose innovative solutions for performance improvement, energy savings, and reliability enhancement.
- Maintain thorough documentation of all design calculations, drawings, specifications, and project communications.
