Ravi Shankar Kumar 

Ravi Shankar Kumar, presently serving as a Junior Researcher (Post-Doctoral Fellow) specializing in Nanofluids at the Thermal Energy Storage Department within The Iberian Energy Storage Research Center @CIIAE in Caceres, Spain since 2024, previously held a Post-Doctoral position at the Department of Petroleum Engineering, Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates from 2021 to 2023.

He obtained his Ph.D. in 2021 from the Department of Petroleum Engineering and Geoengineering at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT), Amethi, Uttar Pradesh, India, an institution of national importance under the Government of India. His doctoral research was centered on the development and design of polymer-based nanocomposites incorporating silica and titania nanoparticles, with a focus on exploring their multifunctional applications.

Furthermore, he completed his Master of Technology (M.Tech) in 2016, specializing in the application of Artificial Intelligence for the determination of petrophysical data, also at RGIPT. Prior to that, he earned his Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Electrical Engineering from Govt. Engineering College Bikaner, Rajasthan (affiliated with Rajasthan Technical University), India in 2012.

Ravi Shankar Kumar envisions exploring innovative avenues in nanofluid applications within science and technology, particularly emphasizing energy applications. His overarching goal is to expand the utility of nanofluids to effectively address current and future energy challenges.
