Experience

• 

  University of Calabria

  Sept 2009 - Nov 2009

  Training period - DIMEG

  Bachelor thesis: "Fluid dynamic simulation of innovative diesel engine aftertreatment systems"A numerical fluid dynamic characterization of a NOx trap has been developed. Numerical predictions in terms of flow rate have been compared with experimental data for different pressure drops with a good agreement.

  Erasmus Intern

  External supervisor Dr.-Ing. L. ZiganMaster thesis in "Numerical modeling of the atomization and evaporation of DISI-engine sprays"The effect of fuel properties on spray formation and mixture formation under engine-relevant conditions simulated in an injection chamber has been examined. To the purpose, a CFD-spray model has been developed. Numerical outcomes have been compared with experimental observations for different parameters showing a good agreement. ▪ Performed numerical modelling of fuel injection to test new fuel blending▪ Identified and validated right procedure to implement non-standard fuels Show less
