·
Working
as a CAE Engineer in Atlascopco India Ltd. from 24th June 2003 to
till date. Is responsible for Structural and CFD analysis, managing team of two
peoples to complete the projects from the complete division at
Have handled projects individually in
different engineering fields, few of them are listed below,
1)
Shock
load analysis in transient domain, to check frame safety for road transportation
with given road test data.
2)
Compressor
frame proof load analysis for railway bogie mounting, which included shock and
vibration analysis along with fatigue strength calculation, according to
European standards.
3)
Water
receiver analysis for dynamic loading considering the receiver dynamics in to
consideration.
4)
Dryer
vessel analysis considering the geometrical non-linearities and contact
elements between the components. ( large displacement and follower fore
considerations)
5)
Impeller
Modal Analysis with cyclic symmetry segments (harmonics, nodal diameter,
harmonic index, etc.)
6)
Worked
on many projects of CFD analysis, which include compressible (Ideal gas),
incompressible flows, multiphase flows, turbulent and laminar flows with usage
of different turbulence models available with fluent. MRF problems for fan
region, standard all function and near wall treatment approach for capturing
the turbulence characteristics exactly for the flow domain. I have also used
Multiphase models such as Eulerian-Euleran, Eulerian-Lagrangian models
extensively. I have also solved problems with Mixture model with cavitation
phenomenon, DPM model with various wall boundary conditions and various types
of injectors have been used.
7)
Working
on FSI (Fluid structure interface) methodology for some important projects.
8)
Domain
knowledge of compressor technique, which include screw compressor, turbo
compressor, scroll compressor and piston-cylinder compressor.
·
Worked
as a Postgraduate Engineer Trainee in ThyssenKrupp Industries India Ltd.,
from 1st Oct 2002 to 23rd Jun 2003, in Design & Engineering
Division. Was responsible for FEA analysis using software like Ansys 6.1 and
IDEAS 9.0. Work involved Design
calculations and Developments related to Centrifugal machines, Belt conveyors,
etc. Handled FEA projects which included, analysis of crusher shaft,
Polyurethane star coupling, flange of disc break, etc. got convergent with IS
and DIN standards.

Worked
as a project trainee for 8 months at Propulsion division, National Aerospace
Laboratories,
Academic Project Works:
1. Project
for B.E.
Title :
Design and fabrication of
Automatic Hydraulic Sampler
Platform : Designing of components, Conventional
Machining and AutoCAD drafting.
2. Project for M.Tech.
(Carried out at National
Aerospace Laboratories, Govt. of INDIA,
Title
: Design, Analysis and
experimentation of Magnetic Bearing for Rotating System.
Platform :
Conventional design, ANSYS 5.4
Abstract:
Work involved was to design a Magnetic
Bearing for rotating system, which will be used for aerospace applications with
high speeds and extreme operating conditions. Magnetic bearings have got
advantages such as no lubrication required, long life, reliability, stiffness
and damping coefficient of bearing can be changed as and when required, etc.
Thus these bearings can be used in Aero-engines, turbines, compressors, etc. it
is a futuristic technology and will dominate in coming years.
In this work, magnetic actuators, active
feedback control system for magnetic bearing is completely designed. A
systematic approach for Magnetic bearing design is presented in this work. FEM
analysis is carried out to check the validity of the designed data using
front-end software ANSYS 5.4. A demonstration modal is prepared and experiments
were carried to measure various field parameters. Experimental values and FEM
results were compared with each other.
