My work profile included studying the water-hammer effects in different types of conduits. I have been exposed to projects of different magnitude like Cooling Water supply systems to thermal power plants, Lift-Irrigation schemes, cross-country water supply projects etc. Secondary work included the design of pressure vessels, for the purpose of air-vessel based water hammer protection systems.
Currently, I focus on studies pertaining to pump sump models. Employing the method of Computational Fluid Dynamics has been a very keen interest for me. With limited access to commercial CFD packages like Ansys Fluent due to its extremely high cost, I concentrate on open-source softwares for the CF...
