Research Interest
Combustion and Shock Wave Physics: Combustion is an amalgam of thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer and fluid dynamics and deals with the conversion of chemical to thermal energy by oxidation of fuels. Shock wave physics investigates the thermodynamics of the adiabatically compressed shocked state and the dynamics of the non-steady shock propagation. These research topics find extensive practical applications in energy conversion and propulsion systems.
