Project – Numerical Study of the Hysteresis Phenomenon related to Unstart/Restart in
Scramjet Engine    /    January 2023 – May 2023

• Created a dynamic mesh of a scramjet inlet to simulate the ICR (internal compression ratio) change between 1.3 and 2.1 in the throat region of the engine using a UDF in Ansys FLUENT.
• Successfully simulated the unstart/restart process in the engine at Mach 3 speeds and obtained the hysteresis loop around the unstart/restart process.
• Increased the understanding of how the hysteresis changes with the ICR in scramjet engines, providing practical
  implications for the design of a supersonic aircraft

Project – Aerodynamic Optimization of a Multi-element airfoil    /    October 2022 – December 2022

• Performed an aerodynamic shape optimization of the 30P30N airfoil and the NACA 0012 airfoil using the adjoint method and the OPENFoam toolbox.
• Improved the Lift-to-Drag of 23.6% in the single-element airfoil and 7.6% in the multi-element airfoil.

Aerothon 2021 – Design of a BWB UAV    /    March 2021 – April 2021 

• Worked in a group of 8 people to design, analyze, and propose a Blended Wing Body (BWB) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) concept for civilian uses like transporting covid-19 essentials to remote areas.
• Learned and used Ansys Fluent to perform CFD analysis on the aircraft.

Project – Banana maturity detection using Machine Learning    /    December 2019 – February 2021

• Programed and deployed a machine learning model on a Raspberry Pi for detecting level of ripeness on a banana using a Pi Camera with an accuracy of 92%. The model was trained with dataset of 365 images.
• First Prize – Final Year Project Exhibition at Vidyalankar Polytechnic, February 2020)

Reliance Jio – Engineering Intern    /    May 2019 – June 2019
