2. Company: InfoTech Enterprises Limited, Hyderabad

Experience: 1.5 Years From: May 2004 To: Sep 2005

Job Title: Sr. Engineer

Industry: Aerospace

Deputed to Pratt & Whitney, Connecticut, USA for the period of 3 months

Analyzed High-speed blow down bearing compartment

Predicted the air/oil flow phenomena and related heat transfer processes in bearing chambers by simulating in FLUENT. The transient two-phase flow analysis was carried out by considering air as primary phase and oil as secondary phase. The pressure drops across the seals are compared with experimental measurements.

Analyzed PW2000 engine scavenge port in the lubrication system

Predicted the pressure drop across the scavenge port for the different location in the bearing chamber by simulating in FLUENT. The two-phase flow analysis was carried out by writing UDF to implement the annular mist flow in the scavenge port. From the simulation results analytical correlations were derived. The simulation results were compared with the experimental measurements.

Analyzed oil film disintegration mechanism at the rim of rotating disk. The Transient analysis was carried out by injecting oil in different radial locations. From the analysis, various disintegration modes relevant to different particle size and different rotor speed are predicted and compared with the experimental measurements.
