Dr. Kaushik Saha received his PhD in 2014 from Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering Department at University of Waterloo, Canada. During his PhD, Dr. Saha worked on cavitation in diesel injectors, blended diesel-biodiesel droplet evaporation, NOx reduction using Urea-SCR systems. Prior to his doctorate, Dr. Saha finished his M.S. in 2009 at Mechanical Engineering Department of University of Connecticut, where he worked on numerical simulation of material processing using microwave excited plasmas. After his PhD Dr. Saha worked as Postdoctoral Appointee at Energy Systems Division of Argonne National Laboratory, IL, USA. During his postdoc, Dr. Saha worked on gasoline direct injection sprays, flash boiling, coupling of internal nozzle flow with spray atomization, diesel engine combustion and cavitation erosion. In December 2017, Dr. Saha joined Bennett University in Greater Noida, India as Assistant Professor. In June 2018, Dr. Saha joined the Department of Energy Science and Engineering (formally known CES), at IIT Delhi as Assistant Professor.
