EXPERIENCE
Graduate Research Assistant, University of Nevada-Reno (2011-Present)
• Developed an in depth reservoir model of Enhance Geothermal System (EGS) that will help in prediction of temperature, pressure and rock mechanics of reservoir for single and multiple fracture reservoir.
• Modulation of injection flow for Enhance Geothermal System to optimize the power production and reduce downhole temperature decline.
• Modeling of Geothermal Reservoirs and underground mine ventilation
• Benchmarking MULTIFLUX software, which simulates air flow, heat, moisture, and gas transport with other comparable softwares for Mining as well as underground applicatio...
