  Project: "Numerical Prediction of Automotive Underhood Airflows using an Uncalibrated Fan Body Force Model" ꟷ Developed open-source CFD expertise to innovatively model fans for the design of vehicle cooling systems. ꟷ Coded custom solvers and user-defined functions to implement an array of turbomachinery models (body force, MRF, sliding mesh) in OpenFOAM and Star-CCM+ for a full-vehicle setup. ꟷ Cut design costs by eliminating the calibration of fan CFD model with experiments/high-fidelity data. ꟷ Reduced simulation times by 2-3 orders of magnitude compared to higher-fidelity simulations. ꟷ Key Achievement: A low-cost, rapid CFD design tool for vehicle cooling systems with prediction accuracy of 1 to 8% (better than current best-practice techniques). ꟷ This project forms the basis of my master thesis.
