PhD. candidate at Colorado State University working at the Chemical Energy Conversion Laboratory. My research focus is on multidimensional modeling and control of End-Gas Autoignition (EGAI) in Spark Ignited Natural Gas engines. The goal of the research is to achieve Diesel-like efficiencies by using controlled end-gas autoignition. A Cooperative Fuel Research (CFR) engine and a 15-L Cummins engine have been used for this purpose having a mix of experimental, 1D, and 3D modeling work to study the fuel-engine interactions that lead to EGAI.
