1. Heat and Mass Transfer including Phase Change Materials (PCM) and Heat Exchangers:  This group’s research in this domain focuses on the utilization of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) for enhancing thermal energy storage systems. Dr. Suvash C. Saha and his collaborators investigate the integration of PCMs in heat exchangers to improve their efficiency. Their work encompasses both numerical and experimental analysis to understand PCM behavior during phase transitions. By studying the melting and solidification processes, they aim to optimize the heat transfer rates and storage capacities of these materials. Numerical simulations provide detailed insights into the thermal and fluid flow characteristics, while experimental studies validate these models and explore practical implementations. The team explores various PCM configurations, such as encapsulated PCMs and PCM slurry systems, to enhance the thermal conductivity and heat transfer rates.

The group’s innovative approach also includes the development of hybrid heat exchangers that combine PCMs with other advanced materials, such as nanofluids and metal foams, to further improve thermal performance. These hybrid systems leverage the high latent heat storage capacity of PCMs along with the superior thermal conductivity of other materials. For instance, integrating metal foams with PCMs can significantly enhance heat transfer rates by providing a larger surface area for heat exchange. Similarly, incorporating nanofluids can improve the overall thermal conductivity and heat capacity of the system. This multidisciplinary research not only aims at improving the efficiency of thermal energy storage systems but also focuses on practical applications, such as enhancing the performance of HVAC systems, solar thermal collectors, and industrial heat exchangers. Figures 1 and 2 illustrate typical PCM-based heat exchangers and the enhanced heat transfer mechanisms in hybrid systems.

2. Solar Thermal Energy Technology: This group’s work in solar thermal energy technology revolves around the development and optimization of solar collectors and systems. He explores the design and performance of different types of solar collectors, such as flat plate and parabolic trough collectors. His research aims to enhance the efficiency of solar thermal systems through innovative designs and materials, including the use of PCMs for thermal storage in solar collectors.

3. Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Buildings and Other Confined Geometries: In this area, Dr. Saha and his group investigate the dynamics of natural convection heat transfer within buildings and other confined spaces. His studies focus on understanding the flow patterns and heat transfer mechanisms in enclosures with varying geometries. He employs both numerical simulations and experimental methods to analyze the effects of different parameters, such as aspect ratio and boundary conditions, on natural convection heat transfer.

4. Scale Analysis for the Transient Flow due to Natural Convection: Dr. Saha’s previous research includes scale analysis of transient natural convection flows. He examines the temporal evolution of flow fields and thermal profiles in natural convection scenarios. His work involves developing analytical models to predict transient behavior and validate these models through experimental data. This research helps in understanding the scaling laws governing transient natural convection flows in various applications.

5. Magnetic Convection: In the field of magnetic convection, Dr. Saha and his group explore the influence of magnetic fields on convective heat transfer. His research includes studying the impact of magnetic fields on fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics in different geometries and configurations. He aims to develop a fundamental understanding of how magnetic fields can be used to control and enhance heat transfer processes.

6. Building Energy: This group’s research on building energy focuses on improving energy efficiency and sustainability in building designs. He investigates various aspects of building energy consumption, including heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. His work includes the development of energy-efficient building materials, the integration of renewable energy sources, and the application of advanced control strategies to optimize energy use in buildings.
