INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS
Stress in a Hydrokinetic Turbine Blade
Design of a single blade of a hydrokinetic turbine and hub completed in Star-CCM+ and validated software results by comparing against design requirements.
Studied von Mises stresses obtained at different load conditions leading to blade failure and performed documentation for procedures. Also studied software advantages and limitations against ANSYS.
Automotive Diesel Engine- Variable Valve Timing
Analyzed the opening and closing of valves at the dead center positions in a cut section of a single piston diesel engine.
Performed comparison and studied the theoretical and actual valve timing diagrams in a 4S Otto cycle engine and analysis of the behavior and impact on the efficiency and power output of the engine.
Effect of Variables on Surface Roughness in CNC operation- International Publication
Investigated the effects of spindle speed and feed rate on the surface characteristics of five different carbon alloy steels.
Studied results in collaboration with the National Institute of Technology (NITK), India and presented at the International Conference on Modeling, Optimization and Computing (ICMOC).
