I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Petroleum and Mineral Resources Engineering at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET).
LEARNER|TEACHER|RESEARCHER
With demonstrated teaching and research background, I am deeply intrigued by the realms of Thermodynamics, Energy and Exergy Efficiency, and Applied Machine Learning. I lead the Energy Systems and Modeling (EnSyM) Research Group, which is engaged in diverse and impactful research projects, including:
Heat transfer enhancement in microchannels
Cold energy recovery from LNG
Geothermal energy utilization
Life cycle assessment of autorickshaws
Our research group welcomes enthusiastic and motivated graduate and undergraduate students who are passionate about contributing to cutting-edge and meaningful research.
Our research paper titled "Thermodynamic analysis and optimisation of a novel transcritical CO2 cycle" has been published on Energy Conversion and Management, which is one of the top journals in the field of energy (Impact Factor : 11.533, Cite Score: 18). The full paper can be accessed here.
Our project on braille pdf reader for visually imapired earned Champion title of Engineering Innovation Challenge-2018 which was organized by Institute of Engineers, Singapore. In this video, I am sharing our feelings after the result announcement. Details of the project can be found here.
The BUET SPE Student Chapter successfully organized a three-day workshop on Python programming. During this workshop, I had the privilege of presenting fundamental concepts of Python programming, along with an in-depth exploration of essential modules, such as numpy, scipy, pandas and matplotlib, were demonstrated for purposes of equation solving, data visualization, and curve fitting.
I am honored to have been invited to deliver three lectures on energy-related topics during the foundation training of BPC officers at Bangladesh Petroleum Institute (BPI). The training provided a wonderful platform to discuss energy overview, resources, and global and Bangladesh energy outlook. Lecture materials can be accessed here.
I was invited to speak at a session hosted by IMechE Student Chapter of Ahsanullah University of Science and Technology (AUST) on 30 June, 2022. To exchange ideas for the freshmen's future journey with them was a lovely experience.
In collaboration with Onnorokom Pathshala, a non profit educational platform, I have created some tutorials on the topics of introductory modern physics including: special theory of relativity, photo electric effect, Compton effect etc for Bengali speaking students of class 11-12.
