Research
The laboratory focuses on studying turbulent flows in energy systems and the research work is categorized into three verticals - high-speed flows, turbomachinery & power and multiphase flows. The research methodology is experimental, analytical and numerical. The experimental diagnostics include particle image velocimetry (PIV), high-speed imaging and probe measurements.
HIGH-SPEED FLOWS
Flow instabilities, acoustics and heat transfer characteristics in high-speed subsonic and supersonic jets
​
Applications: Aerospace propulsion, additive manufacturing and impingement cooling systems
​
TURBOMACHINERY & POWER
MULTIPHASE FLOWS
Flow dynamics in turbines, compressors, fans and duct flows
​
Applications: Gas turbine engine and sustainable energy systems like wind turbines
Spray characteristics of liquid injected in turbulent air flow
​
