About
I am a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Bombay, working under the supervision of Prof. Amit Agrawal. His research advances third-order transport equations for rarefied gas dynamics, focusing on third-order super-O13 equations and their application in non-Fourier heat conduction models. Collaborating with Prof. Dipanshu Bansal, he works on a heat transport model for non-Fourier heat transfer in micro/nano-scale semiconductors, aiming to unify rarefied gas dynamics and non-Fourier heat conduction models.
I defended his thesis on February 19, 2024, under the supervision of Prof. Amit Agrawal. Specializing in Thermal and Fluids Engineering, he has published five first-author and two second-author papers in international journals, including the Journal of Fluid Mechanics.
I completed my M. Tech at IIT Jodhpur under Prof. Laltu Chandra, with a publication in the Journal of Solar Energy.
I presented my research at various national and international conferences. I received the Best Poster Presentation award from the Royal Society of Chemistry at the 1st Indian Conference on Micro Nano Fluidics (iCOM 2023).
