PhD Candidate

Amirhossein Amirsoleymani

I earned B.A.Sc and M.A.Sc of chemical engineering from the BNUT University, located in Iran. During this period, I had a chance to work on the optimization of nonlinear mathematical and theoretical models.  I received my 2nd M.A.Sc degree in Environmental Engineering program from the University of Windsor. After which, I was hired by the University as a research associate. During this period, several academical and industrial projects were completed successfully.

Currently, I am a Ph.D. student in the department of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering at the University of Waterloo under the supervision of Dr Xianguo Li at Fuel Cell and Green Energy Lab (FCGEL), I am mainly focused on fluid flow and thermal CFD Analysis inside the PEMFC’s bipolar plate from the cell to stack level. The main goal of my research will be addressing the issue due to the water accumulation inside the fuel cell which can detrimentally affect the whole performance of Fuel cell.

PROJECTS AT FCGEL

  • Design and Development of next-generation metallic PEMFC bipolar plates
  • Thermal behavior of Bipolar plates by CFD simulation.
  • CFD simulation of battery thermal management system
