Description

I am an engineer specialized in thermal, energy and CFD simulations, supporting companies in the analysis and optimization of complex physical systems. I help teams understand and predict heat transfer, airflow and energy performance early in the design process, enabling better technical decisions and reducing development risk and costs.

I work with 1D, 2D and 3D numerical models to study heat transfer, fluid dynamics, thermal storage and energy efficiency. My experience covers industrial thermal systems, energy-related components and building performance applications, including HVAC, natural ventilation, thermal comfort and climate-based analysis.

Typical deliverables include reproducible simulation models, clear and structured technical reports, CFD post-processing and visualizations, and practical design recommendations. I collaborate on both short-term technical studies and longer development projects, with a reliable, autonomous and results-oriented approach.
