About Nazmul Khan
Dr Nazmul Khan has been working as a Research Fellow at Victoria University since 2018 in a Bushfire and Natural Hazards Cooperative Research Centre project for the fire agencies of Australia. He is also an APA Scholarship holder.
Nazmul has 7 years of research experience as a part of the academic study in Master of Engineering and PhD from the UNSW and the University of Sydney, respectively.
He has developed a Lagrangian particle based liquid phase model for the LES based multiphase combustion modelling of liquid sprays. The model was developed in mmcFOAM, a branch of OpenFOAM developed at the University of Sydney. This sparse-Lagrangian MMC-LES multiphase combustion model was validated against experimental data, which shows the excellent agreement between the simulation results and the experimental data.
Dr Nazmul has a strong background in C++ Object-based programming in OpenFOAM, Fortran 90 programming in FDS, Matlab post-processing and software and hardware customising experience for running simulation in Linux based HPC, AWS and other remote desktops. He would like to further extend his research and teaching career in the field of computational fluid dynamics.
Qualifications
- PhD, The University of Sydney, Australia, 2017
- Master of Engineering (Research), The University of New South Wales, Australia, 2013
- Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering, BUET, Bangladesh, 1999
