Research Interests
- Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS)
- Turbulence
- Multiphase flows
- Heat and mass transfer
I study multiphase and turbulent flows due to their importance in numerous industrial and environmental contexts. The intricate interplay between the carrier and dispersed phases significantly influences how things like heat and mass are transferred. Through the use of DNS, my work aims to provide fundamental insights into the underlying physics, which can lead to better predictions and designs.
