Dr. Ghaemi received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and the M.S. degree in mathematics from University of Michigan in 2010 and 2009 respectively. He was a visiting scholor at ETH in 2008. From 2010 to 2012 he was a post-doctoral associate in the Mechanical Engineering department at MIT, researching supervisory control of order-preserving systems and stochastic analysis of biological systems.
- Developing Refractory Alloy Innovations for Superior Efficiency (RAISE) – an ultra-high temperature material system that would enable gas turbine blades to operate at 1,700 °C (3,092°F)
- Will help drive efforts to push turbine efficiency beyond 65% and accelerate decarbonization of the energy sector
- $1.6 million project to be driven by world-class, multi-disciplinary team with d
Originally from Long Grove, IL. Design, experimentation, and analysis along with significant coursework in the fields of thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and machine learning. Fabrication experience with the lathe, mill, MIG welder, and other machines. MS research focused on determining thermal conductivity, heat capacitance, and heat transfer coefficients of particles for packed-bed flow for concentrated solar power and thermal energy storage systems as part of US DOE's Gen3 CSP project; funding through NREL and Brayton Energy.
~10 years' wet & solid-state chemistry experience. Strong synthetic, characterization, and processing skills for both inorganic and organic materials. Areas of expertise:
