Research Interests

  • Water management in Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs)
  • Characterization of PEMFC Gas Diffusion Layers
  • Microfluidic fuel cells
  • Microfluidics & multiphase flow in porous media
  • Carbon sequestration

Our research interests encompass the study of microfluidics applied to transport phenomena in energy systems, with a focus on polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell technologies. The goal of our work is to design novel materials and architectures for enhanced energy systems through a two pronged approach: numerical modelling and experimental validation. Our research is multidisciplinary and involves fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, micro- and nano-technologies, chemistry, and geology. Learn more »

Graduate positions available

I am looking for bright and motivated graduate students who are interested in investigating the transport phenomena and performance of fuel cells and clean energy applications through computational modelling and experimentation. Learn more »
