PROJECTS:

Collection of wind data around University of New Haven main campus. May 2017

• Coordinated and compared data, obtained from weather station and hot wire anemometer, against results of CFD simulation.

• Examined, correlated CFX simulation data with actual results to demonstrate accuracy of CFX solution. 2D - finite difference solution of a composite wall December 2016

• Assimilated heat conduction in a composite wall through ANSYS, Therm and MATLAB (developed own program).

• Developed finite difference equations for wall from basics in MATLAB and solved for certain conditions and compared temperatures and resistance values achieved and were approximately equal. CFD simulation of unsteady flow over a cylinder May 2016

• Inspected, contrasted behavior of wakes when cylinder is placed at different locations from boundary layer and separation by “Detached Eddy Simulation” under sub-sonic boundary layer to super-sonic boundary layer.
