Nishar Khan

CFD Application Engineer with hands-on experience in thermal simulations and fluid-structure interaction. Skilled in using ANSYS Fluent and SolidWorks to improve designs and boost performance. A team player with a strong focus on solving problems and delivering high-quality results.

Low-Temperature Furnace Simulation with FSI – Inconel 625 Muffle

Developed and executed a Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) model to study thermal stress on Inconel 625 muffles under operational conditions, identified critical stress zones caused by temperature gradients, enabling design optimizations to enhance durability and flexibility

CFD Analysis and Design of Impeller for Stabilization Oven

Performed CFD simulations to evaluate static pressure drops caused by baffles, perforated sheets, and diffusers, and determined the required volumetric airflow and temperature for optimal oven performance Designed and tested multiple impeller types (backward-curved, forward-curved, and radial vane) to match system requirements Identified the most efficient impeller based on power consumption and airflow efficiency under non-standard conditions, due to the absence of conventional casing, which introduced unpredictability Overcame design challenges through rigorous simulation and experimental validation, and successfully integrated the optimized impeller into the carbon fiber stabilization oven system.

Oxidation Oven CFD Analysis – Carbon Fiber Stabilization Process

Designed and validated oxidation ovens to achieve ±3°C temperature and ±0.2 m/s velocity uniformity across the fiber zone, optimized impeller design, baffle configuration, and flow distribution strategies (center-to-end, top-to-bottom, crossflow, parallel flow) using Ansys Fluent, and enhanced process stability and product quality through improved flow and thermal uniformity
