CFD · THERMAL SYSTEMS · SIMULATION AUTOMATION
I develop CFD models and tools that help engineering teams evaluate designs and spend less time on repetitive simulation work.
My experience spans 30 professional projects in multiphase flow, heat transfer, pumps, valves and hydrogen systems, alongside doctoral research in coupled fluid mechanics.
I combine Python, PyFluent and 1D–3D simulation with AI-assisted development and MCP-supported workflows. Physical assumptions, APIs and results remain subject to engineering checks.

Public industrial examples use simplified or alternative geometries to illustrate methods used in my professional work. They do not reproduce customer components or disclose project-specific results. Research and consulting cases are identified separately.

Professional projects in thermal systems, multiphase flow and simulation automation. Public demonstrators use generic or simplified geometries.
02 / ENGINEERING APPROACH
Each study connects a design question with suitable models, checked results and engineering recommendations.
Define the operating conditions, required outputs and design question.
Select the mesh, boundary conditions and physical models for the flow and thermal behaviour.
Check convergence, conservation and sensitivity. Compare with measurements or published benchmarks when available.
Explain the flow behaviour, compare designs and report the model’s limitations.
