Profile Summary

Fabrisio Leopoldo Gómez García holds a PhD in Engineering Science from the University of Perpignan in France, and he has a broad international experience in the field of Renewable Energies. In 2008 he concluded with honors the Master Degree in Engineering in the Energy Research Center (CIE-UNAM) of Mexico, where he worked from 2007 to 2009 as a Research Assistant in two research groups. During this period, he carried out heat transfer studies to increase the energy efficiency of household appliances, and developed passive cooling systems for buildings. In 2009 he moves to Spain to work for 4 years as a Predoctoral Researcher in the Institute IMDEA Energy of Madrid, where he participated in R&D projects in collaboration with international companies and research centers in the field of CSTP such as Torresol Enegy, ETHZ and CIEMAT. The most relevant activities carried out during this period were the development, implementation and commissioning of: devices for thermal characterization for volumetric absorbers, high-radiative flux solar simulators, devices for characterizing the optical quality of solar concentrating systems, and solar reactors for hydrogen production by thermochemical cycles; as well as the development of numerical models for the analysis of solar absorption and heat exchange in innovative volumetric absorbers. Moreover, he conducted two stays in the Paul Scherrer Institute of Switzerland and two in the PSA-CIEMAT of Spain. He started his PhD in December 2011 at the University of Perpignan in the frame of a collaboration between the Institute IMDEA Energy and the PROMES-CNRS laboratory of France. The last year of his PhD project was funded by a fellowship from the Mexican government and conducted in the Solar Furnace of Odeillo in France. He read his thesis in January 2015, obtaining the PhD degree with honors. In 2015, he carried out a postdoctoral stay linked to the STAGE-STE project in the PROMESCNRS laboratory, where he coordinated one of the sub-tasks of the project and developed analytical models for the techno-economic study of fluidized bed heat exchangers for heat storage systems in solar plants.
