TRAININGS & PROJECTS UNDERTAKEN

MINOR PROJECT

Institution : UPES, Dehradun, India Duration: Aug ’19 - May ‘20

Project Title : Designing and fabricating an omniwing aircraft for surveillance

Mentor : Ramesh Kumar (Assistant Professor)

Description : The main motive of pursuing this project is to study and understand the effect of regression rate on thrust in a hybrid motor, two different fuels are taken into account at various chamber pressures and difference in thrust is calculated in order to study the difference caused by regression rates and isp of fuels. SOLIDWORKS along with MATLAB used to design an optimized conical convergent - divergent nozzle, further advanced excel tools were used to formulate the data. ANSYS and PATRAN were used to do the required simulations.

TEAM LEADER (INDIAN ROVER CHALLENGE - TEAM VIKALAP)

Organization : UPES, Dehradun, India Duration: Sept’19 – June’20

Mentors : Ramesh Kumar (Assistant Professor), Ashish Mishra (Assistant Professor), Vinay Choudhary (Assistant Professor), Raja M. (Assistant Professor), Vindhya Devalla (Assistant Professor)

Description : Indian Rover Challenge is a competition organised by Mars Society of South Asia in which the team was supposed to design a rover capable of climbing rough terrains, do autonomous task, pick up things with robotic arm, perform various chemical tests for estimation of possible life that could exist on the testing site. TEAMWORK and MANAGEMENT were the most important learnings in this project along with other technical and MANUFACTURING skills.

TEAM LEAD (NACDeC - III) (HIGH ALTITUDE LONG ENDURANCE PLATFORM DESIGN)

Organization : UPES, Dehradun, India Duration: Oct’19 – Jan’20

Mentors : Rajesh Kumar (Assistant Professor)

Description : NACDeC- III is a conceptual design challenge organized by IIT BOMBAY, this year we were supposed to be a high-altitude long endurance platform which should be able to hover over 4 given cities at an altitude of 15 to 20 KM for a duration of 3 months and travel in between the cities in a given time of 5 days.

PROPULSION TEAM MEMBER (LPRD - Liquid Propelled Rocket Design)

Organization : University of Minnesota Duration: Jan’19 – Jan’20

Mentor : Joseph Prom

Description : LPRD rocketry is a student-run workspace which deals with rockets and its modification. We work together with a dream to be the first student group to launch a rocket in space and win base 11 space challenge.

INTERNSHIPS

PROPULSION SYSTEM INTERN

Organization : AERO2ASTRO Duration: July,2020-Ongoing

Mentor : Ted Selmon (CEO/Founder, AERO2ASTRO)

Description : With India entering Space privatization and opening space for everyone, private companies have arrived in India which are working on launch vehicle technology, AERO2ASTRO is one of them which is focusing on building a reusable SSTO vehicle using aerospike nozzles. My work revolves around the design and optimization of the aerospike nozzle to meet the desired performance parameters.
