Summary

A young professional who is fascinated about Gas turbine engines, a graduate thermal power engineer, pursued a master's degree from the Propulsion Center at Cranfield University, UK, which was accredited by IMechE and RAeS.

The research thesis I worked on was on design of 1MW axial gas compressor using Helium gas as mass flow and coolant for the gas turbine and nuclear combined cycle in order to contribution for the generation of electricity sustainably for the reduction in emissions.

Learned skills from my master's thesis:
- Research thoroughly in the gas turbine closed cycle and it's advantages
- MS Excel & MATLAB for the design of axial gas compressor using mean line method
- ANSYS CFD for the simulation of first four stages of the compressor
