About

I am a Post-Doctoral Research Associate in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. Before Joining IISc. I worked as Postdoc in the Fire Protection Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park. My current research focuses on droplet wetting and Evaporation of complex fluid droplets in microgravity environment. I earned my Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, India, where my research concentrated on solid fuel combustion and flame spread behavior in both normal gravity and microgravity environments. Additionally, I hold a Master’s degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (Indian School of Mines) Dhanbad, My primary research interests include Combustion, Fire safety, computational fire modeling and heat transfer mechanisms.
