Education

Master of Science, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (August 2013-

February 2015)

State University of New York at Buffalo (3.2/4)

Graduate Courses: Fluid Mechanics-1, Heat Transfer-1, Combustion,

Engineering Analysis -1

Computational Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer-2, Finite Element

Structural Analysis, Advanced Material Science and Thermodynamics of

Materials.

Independent Study:

Analyzing Solar cells with the implementation of different types of

Organic inorganic perovskites materials as a photovoltaic film. Study

also includes identifying an alternate material for lead perovskites.

With different non-toxic materials, PV cells are being placed as thin

films in series to absorb each wavelength in the band width of solar

spectrum.

Projects in Computational Fluid Dynamics:

. Employed Artificial compressibility with fourth order Runge-kutta time

stepping to solve the momentum equations using MATLAB. Simulated

Velocity vectors and streamline plots for a range of Reynolds number

and grid sizes.

. Created a solver for 2D incompressible, laminar flow over a backward-

facing step. Governing equations are solved using Artificial

compressibility with fourth order Range-kutta time stepping which were

coded in MATLAB. Residual smoothing is implemented for the solution to

get more stable solutions.

. Analyzed Stefan Problem in MATLAB and simulated the liquid-vapor

boundary interface and got the models of velocity profile of droplet

evaporation for different fuels in different Combustion model.

Bachelor of Engineering, Mechanical Engineering (Aug 2007 - April 2011)

Government College of Engineering, Tirunelveli, Anna University, India

(77.2%)

. Designed and fabricated an automobile in which gear transmission

system was replaced with a continuously variable transmission system

which runs on concept of reeves drive. The automotive industry has

demonstrated a commitment to build safer, cheaper and better

performing vehicles. The traditional mechanical systems were being

replaced by improved systems that are able to do the same tasks

faster, more reliably and more accurately. In this project work the

conventional transmission system was replaced with Continuously

Variable Transmission (CVT). Fabricated a CVT system using Reeves

Drive which eliminates clutch and gear box assembly from the

transmission system thus making a simpler transmitting mechanism and

reducing the loss

. Designed a Magneto rheological Fluid Dampers using SOLID WORKS and

analyzed with ANSYS software and implemented in a lathe machine in

our lab and found that the magnitude of vibration has been reduced by

30 % of the existing damper
