Prasanth NairCIVS is pleased to welcome Prasanth P. Nair as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate. He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN), specializing in high-speed propulsion and air–fuel mixing enhancement strategies. He was a Prime Minister’s Research Fellow (PMRF) at IITGN and an ANRF Overseas Visiting Doctoral Fellow at Purdue University.

His expertise spans computational fluid dynamics (CFD), high-speed aerothermodynamics, supersonic combustion, rotating detonation engines, and advanced data-driven flow analysis methods such as POD and DMD. Prasanth will begin his research and work in CIVS on the $10 million DOE H2RF project.

 

This postdoctoral role offers a unique opportunity to apply my research to real-world industrial combustion challenges. I’m excited to collaborate with the CIVS team, expand my skills, and contribute to innovative solutions that bridge cutting-edge research with industrial impact.
