APRIL 2013-APRIL 2015

PhD researcher Cranfield University Cranfield

Particapated in the distributed electric aerospace prpulsion (DEAP) project founded by Airbus and Rolls-Royce for aircraft engine intake design.

Created design layouts and part drawings using AutoCAD and SolidWorks. Provided CAD model using SolidWorks for the CFD simulation. Created grid for the designed intakes for CFD simulation. Performed intake performance analysis and quantification for the upstream approach and downstream fan design.

Parameterised the key design parameters for the designed intake to achieve its performance limit. Produced report and presentation for the cooperative partners (Rolls-Royce and Airbus). EDUCATION
