Personal profile
Research Interests
Turbulent Spray Combustion Simulation using LES and (U)RANS for Transient Aero Gas-Turbine phenomenona using bio-fuels.
Development and coupling of a Novel reduced combustion modelling using the Flamelet Generated Manifold (FGM) approach for application in an Eularian-Lagrangian spray evaporation and combustion of bio-fuels. Large Eddy Simulation and (U)RANS/Reynolds Stress Modeling of strong swirling flows in multiphase reactive systems.
I have also experience and interest in Supersonic Combustion Modelling using detailed chemical reaction for Scramjet and Waverider Hypersonic Vehicles for space exploration. Compressible Aerodynamics. Fuel Injection, Injector Design, Combustion Initiation and Injector experimentation for Supersonic Combustion.
Interest in Computational Mesh Generation, Turbulence and Code development in C/C++ for CFD. Phenomenological and Thermodynamics Modelling of Internal Combustion Engine.
