Vijaykamesh Balakrishnan

1. Developed CAD model of a tidal turbine using Solidworks and generated a structured mesh with Ansys ICEM and SnappyHexmesh. 2. The Entire (mesh to results) simulations were automatized and performed RANS steady-state simulation on Ansys CFX and OpenFOAM. 3. Performance coefficients and cavitation study results were compared between the Ansys CFX and OpenFOAM software and validated against the experiment. 4. Power loss study with help of entropy and detailed flow behaviour were analyzed.

Erection of Boiler Process Piping and Critical Piping. 1.Responsible for Pre and Post erection activities of the piping. 2.Conducting Post weld heat treatment for critical piping and documenting drawings and reports for boiler inspection. 3. Negotiating with clients on billing and estimated effort.
