Ananth Kulkarni Email and Phone Number
I am a senior undergraduate pursuing Mechanical Engineering at IIT Madras. I am motivated towards exploring and developing sustainable propulsion technologies for the automobile and aerospace sectors. I am deeply interested in combustion, heat and fluid flows.I worked as an undergraduate research assistant at the Institute of Combustion Technology, RWTH Aachen University under Prof. Dr.-Ing Heinz Pitsch. Under the guidance of Dr.-Ing Avijit Saha, I worked on developing a reduced-order model for simulating the growth of bubbles in superheated droplets under flash-boiling conditions. This will then be coupled with LES simulations of flash boiling sprays.At Team AgniRath, I am responsible for overseeing the design, manufacturing and testing of a solar-electric race car to participate in the prestigious World Solar Challenge'25. In 2023, Team AgniRath was the only Indian team to participate in WSC. I was a part of the mechanical team and through this experience, I have gained knowledge in the domains of vehicle dynamics and control, external aerodynamics and battery thermal management.
