Thesis - Comparison of cooling performance of overhead and underfloor
supply with rear door heat exchanger in high density Data Center
clusters.
The research focused on issue of cooling (providing adequate chilled
flow) and thermal management to reduce the heat load generated in high
density data center clusters. CFD software Icepak was used in the
analysis.
Academic Projects:
Purge hole optimization
This project aimed at minimizing the stresses at the purge (bolt & cooling)
holes on the blades of a gas turbine by optimizing the design parameter of
the purge-hole model. The objective was to minimize equivalent stress
distribution between the cooling hole and bolt hole, by creating parameter
macros for modeling, meshing, solving and analyzing the model using Ansys.
Large deformation analysis of a plate
The project aimed at analyzing displacement of a cantilever plate.
The deformation was analyzed using nonlinear geometry analysis in Ansys
Temperature distribution in a cylinder
The project aimed to compute the temperature distribution in a long steel
cylinder with internal temperature and exterior convection. The temperature
distribution was analyzed using Ansys.
Cooling Technologies for Graphic Cards
Project involved modeling in Pro-E and analysis in Ansys Workbench.
Meshing, optimization using Ansys Workbench to find optimum heat transfer
co-efficient for the given model thereby keeping junction temperature below
specific limit. Proposed various efficient cooling technologies from the
achieved data.
Thermal Conduction Module (TCM)
This project involved modeling of TCM in Ansys Workbench. The design
provides heat sink cooling of electronic chip with 300 W powers.
Computer Skills:
