Hello!!
Welcome to the the Shock Waves and High Speed Research Group (SWAHS Lab) at IIT Jodhpur. The SWAHS lab tries to advance the frontiers of research activities and technology development in the field of Aerospace and Defence sector. We also focus on extending the high-speed flows and shock waves research to other applications such as Refrigeration systems, Bio-Medical engineering, Industrial processing, Water processing etc. Some of the existing research activities undertaken in these directions are, Supersonic Intakes, Supersonic Air-Fuel Mixing in Scramjet Combustors, Flow control and Actuators, Gas Turbine Cooling, Electric Propulsion Systems, Shock & Blast Wave Attenuation, Shock waves applications in Bio-Medical Engineering, Solar Ejector Refrigeration, Steam Ejector based Water Purification etc.
