Research Assistant
• Engaged in a variety of research projects, including:1) Thermal management of electronic chipsets• Experimental exploration of electronic chipsets cooling through passive and active techniques.• Conducted investigation on the utilization of phase change materials (PCM) and nano-enhanced PCM for cooling down chipsets.2) Proposing a 3D CFD model for photovoltaic thermal modules• Developed a coupled thermal-optical numerical model using two-band radiation discrete ordinate model.3) Thermal management and performance optimization of photovoltaic panels• Using active and passive approaches such as water cooling, PCM, nano-enhanced PCM, and nanofluid to regulate the temperature of PV cells and generate thermal power.• Proposed Photovoltaic thermal system partially covered by solar cells and integrated with organic PCMs.• Analysis with Ansys Fluent and optimization via response surface methodology (RSM).4) PCM-based thermal energy storage units• Conducted an assessment of nanoparticle influence on PCM thermal performance in shell-and-tube and triplex-tube storage units.• Introduced a novel triplex-tube helical-coil storage unit design.
