Involved in CFD analysis and designing of aerospace/automotive wind tunnels. Performed numerous CFD analysis of different wind tunnel components to tailor the flow quality and other technical requirements. Assisted on-site wind tunnel commissioning assignments requiring rigorous testing and flow equipment setup. Managed several CFD consulting projects across the world in various engineering fields, such as Data Centers, water treatment plant, oil pipeline, pump station, emission study, external and inter aero-thermal analysis of datacenter, etc. ## Key Projects ###Aero-Thermal Load Management of Data Center and Advanced Facilities using 6SigmaRoom # Honda NAAWT commissioning # Wind load simulation of Solar Panel for GSA # Performed aero acceptance commissioning and CFD analysis of contraction nozzle, plenum, high-speed diffuser, collectors, and boundary layer removal system to design Ford Rolling Road Wind Tunnel# Designed contraction nozzle and performed CFD study to predict flow quality requirements of Ford Aeroacoustics Wind Tunnel Upgrade Project (2018-19) # General Motor Aerodynamic Laboratory Commissioning (2018) - Performed final acceptance test and WLTP. # Ford VCWT Marketing Study (2019) # BMW AKW Marketing Study (2018) # Airflow and Temperature Distribution Modeling of Datacenter for Confidential Client # Shoal Creek Raw Water Pump Station Water Flow Study (2017) # CFD Analysis of Fugitive Emission and Oil Flow in Suction Head of TransCanada Pipeline (TCPL) KXL Proposed Pump Station (2017-18) – Implemented proper flow conditioner to reduce the swirling at the suction end of the pump.
