• Engineer and develop air pollution control systems, from pre-contract concepts to performance testing guarantees. Lead engineering team to design, analyze, fabricate, and implement pollution control systems for heavy industry, e.g., power plants, steel mills, cement plants. Includes concept “kickoffs” with customer, design process with engineers/designers, to start-ups with emissions testing.• Calculate initial design through iterations of modeling and analysis for new pollution control concepts; includes a collaboration of performance, heat transfer, fluids, design, cost, and customer specifications. KEY ACHIEVEMENTS:• Introduced Solidworks CFD and FEA into the design process allowing for more competitive sizing and improved performance across all suites of products.• Established processes and protocols for a rapidly expanding engineering team, supporting a company initiative of increased efficiency to sustain 20% annual growth, both domestically and internationally.

• Analyze and declare lives for critical components within the Rotative Components group (shafts, fan, compressor, and turbine discs) through hand calculations, FEA, crack growth, and fatigue lifing. All work audited by senior analysts, documented through technical reports to authority, e.g., FAA, Air Force, Navy, and validated by rig tests.• Support initial design through iterations of modeling and analysis for new gas turbine concepts. Work includes a collaboration of performance, secondary flow, heat transfer, lifing, and design• Respond to technical variants of critical components through inspection of parts, analysis of problem, and mitigation of variantKEY ACHIEVEMENTS• Implemented a lifing method based on mission parameters that affect the stress and life of components through correlation with performance data, i.e., RPM, temp, pressure, dT/t, and flow. • Established a standard for technical variants by personally inspecting parts in laboratory. Allows the critical components lifing team to be involved in clearing a part variant from start to finish.• Continually improved the structural analysis procedure by incorporating additional theoretical calculations, lessons learned from work with other FEA software, and cross-industry experience.

• Converted computational fluid dynamics results into structural simulations for the purpose of performing stress analyses on Fischer-Tropsch reactors and Steam Methane Reformers• Performed compression/operation analyses on processor designs to investigate the effects of gap size, wall thickness, and applied pressure on the diffusion bonding cycle, brazing cycle, and operational life cycle. This is done using ANSYS simulations which include stress, temperature, creep, and contact• Designed, modeled, and tested various devices/reactors for the Technology Development Center. All tests in lab used not only to certify reactors, but also to validate structural analyses• Led post-operation autopsies of reactors by supporting dismantling, specimen prep, and examination. Other activities included aiding experimental ops, pressure drop testing, reactor qualification, and working with vendors on fabrication and catalyst loading/unloading of reactorsKEY ACHIEVEMENTS• Valuable hands-on experience that will aid in future design decisions• Completed numerous stress/thermal analyses that have established micro-channel processor design standards• Expanded company knowledge of simulating reactor designs that has been accepted by multiple worldwide partners and industry professionals. Results are used to ASME certify the reactors• Exposed to a wide variety of work to be able to more fully understand the product and company
