CWRU MECHANICAL ENGINEERING / THERMAL-FLUID RESEARCH
Mechanical engineering student.
Undergraduate thermal-fluid researcher.
I work across CFD, thermal-fluid experiments, and mechanical design in Professor Chirag Kharangate's research group at Case Western Reserve University. My long-term focus is thermal management for high-density computing and AI infrastructure.
From heat generation to heat removal.
A conceptual system, not an experimental result.
01 / CURRENT RESEARCH
Undergraduate research, from a computational model to a flow loop.
In Professor Chirag Kharangate’s group, I am using ANSYS Fluent for multiphase simulations and mesh-sensitivity studies. I also help with thermal-fluid experiments and CAD modifications for experimental hardware.
CFD
Geometry, meshes, VOF models, and post-processing.
Experiments
Flow loops, measurements, pumps, and instrumentation.
Mechanical design
Fixtures and modifications for experimental systems.
02 / ENGINEERING PROJECTS
A Python workflow for thermal-test data validation, steady-state analysis, repeatability, uncertainty, and reporting.
A proposed single-branch loop for studying a commercial cold plate through controlled thermal and hydraulic measurements.
Small tools, explicit assumptions.
03 / DIRECTION
I am interested in the systems that carry heat away from high-performance computing.
Liquid cooling, cold plates, thermal validation, and high-density compute are the direction I am building toward. Research, physical experiments, and tested software are how I am developing that foundation.
