· Developed a robust and durable coating processes using multi-step electrodeposition and sintering techniques to improve thermal properties, sustainability, and performance of heater surfaces for pool boiling heat transfer.

· Conducted experiments and acquired data through K-type thermocouples using cDAQ data acquisition system input module and displayed data via LabVIEW program. Captured and analyzed vapor bubble images using Photron high-speed camera.

· Enhanced the performance by 72% and efficiency by 95% and drastically improved bond strength and life of the coatings. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis of Automobile Vehicles, RIT Aug. 2015 - Dec. 2015

· Compared lift and drag forces of BMW X6 and Suzuki WagonR models developed in SolidWorks.

· Studied the effect on vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy due to change in aerodynamic shape using ANSYS Fluent.

· Concluded that at higher velocities, larger wakes are formed behind WagonR model, increasing the drag force marginally when compared to the BMW model. Sintered Coatings for Dramatic Improvement in Thermal and Mechanical Properties, TAMFL, RIT Jan. 2019 - Apr. 2019

· Manufactured composite metal powders via ball milling technique and achieved higher thermal and mechanical properties. Produced highly micro and/or nanoporous structures with these particles using salt-templated sintering technique.

· Drastically increased surface area, porosity, and hydrophilicity of the coatings and enhanced heat transfer capacity by 131% and efficiency of the heater surface by 2390% compared to plain copper surfaces - highest recorded enhancement. Design of Pool Boiling Setup and Stage Tilting Setup for Evaporation Testing, University of Toledo Apr. 2020 - Current

· Working as a visiting scholar at the University of Toledo, guiding graduate students in Interfacial Thermal and Transport Lab.

· Worked on concept level design, and prepared a compact and easier to use pool boiling test setup for electronics cooling testing, assembly, bill of materials (BOM) using SolidWorks.

· Reviewed and finalized easy to machine, less costly, and lower thermal conductivity materials to minimize the heat losses.

· Designed a test setup using SolidWorks for evaporation testing on porous coatings, applied tolerance analysis, DFMA, FMEA techniques to save the material cost and to reduce complexities during manufacturing of setup. Innovative Design and Validation of NACA Airfoils for Lift Improvement, MITCOE Sept. 2014 - Apr. 2015

· Aimed to increase the lift force of the NACA2412 airfoil by incorporating an internal passage to delay the air ow separation.

· Used wind tunnel for testing 3D printed airfoils, Pro-E software for geometries and ANSYS Fluent for the numerical analysis.

· Concluded from experimental analysis that as the angle of attack increases, a marginal increase in lift for NACA2412 airfoil with internal passage is observed than that of the NACA2412 airfoil, validated using numerical analysis. 1 of 2
