Thermal & CFD Specialist | Energy Systems, Heat Transfer & Storage | ANSYS Fluent, HPC

Profile Summary

I am a highly skilled Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Thermal Engineer with a PhD in Engineering and over 6 years of experience in simulating complex thermal-fluid systems. My core expertise includes thermal energy storage (TES), multiphase and compressible flow, heat exchangers, and renewable energy applications. I use industry-standard tools such as ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, and OpenFOAM, with high-performance computing (HPC) to deliver fast, accurate, and validated results. Currently, I work as a Research Associate in a UK EPSRC-funded project, where I lead CFD simulations for Adiabatic Compressed Air Energy Storage (A-CAES) systems, integrating porous media modeling, transient thermal performance, and energy efficiency optimization. My academic background includes: PhD in CFD & Thermal Systems, University of Leicester, UK – Focused on microchannel heat sinks, nanofluids, and single vs two-phase modeling. MSc in Mechanical Engineering, Northumbria University, UK – Experimental work on nanofluid-based heat exchangers. Over 5 peer-reviewed publications in top journals on energy systems and heat transfer enhancement. I offer: End-to-end CFD modeling (geometry, meshing, setup, solving, post-processing) Expert knowledge of thermal-fluid phenomena Support for research, academic writing, and data validation Strong communication and timely delivery Let’s work together to bring advanced CFD insights to your project.
