Experimental 3-D Measurement of Flow in a Tire Wake Region, University of North Carolina at Charlotte Jan 2019 - May 2019
● The goal of this experiment is to measure the flow around a scaled rubber tire on a rolling road in a wind tunnel, specifically focusing on the wake region behind the tire on a rolling road platform
● Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry was used to experimentally measure the flow Racecar Rear Diffuser, University of North Carolina at Charlotte May 2019
● A detailed geometry of a diffuser for a european le man series car was designed, and simulations were run on star-ccm+ to validate the results
CFD Simulation of Pick-up Truck, University of North Carolina at Charlotte April 2019
● There is a common debate on whether a pickup truck gets a better gas mileage with the tailgate up or down. In this project we attempt to answer the question by running CFD simulation on star ccm+ Heat Recovery System, University of North Carolina at Charlotte Nov 2018
● Designed a heat recovery system for a V-8 Oldsmobile 404 CI racing engine, increased the efficiency of engine indirectly, using thermoelectric generators (TEG) based heat recovery system Solar Desalination using Compound Parabolic Concentrators, MIT College of Engineering Aug 2016- May 2017
