Author Information

Dr Rahul Yadav completed his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Madras in the year 2018 and served as an Institute Post Doctoral Fellow at IIT Kanpur for 2.5 years. He has more than 7 years of experience as a researcher in radiative heat transfer in participating media. He has around 6 publications to his credit in reputed international journals in topics related to computational radiative heat transfer and neural networks. He is a reviewer for several international journals. He has been awarded a pre-doctoral fellowship from IIT Madras and is also a recipient of Institute Post-Doctoral Fellowship from IIT Kanpur.  Dr. C Balaji is currently T. T. Narendran Chair Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras, India. He graduated in Mechanical Engineering from Guindy Engineering College, Chennai, in 1990 and obtained his M.Tech. (1992) and Ph.D. (1995) from IIT Madras in the area of heat transfer. His areas of interest include heat transfer, computational radiation, optimization, inverse problems, satellite meteorology, and atmospheric sciences. He has more than 200 international journal publications to his credit and has guided 30 students so far. Prof. Balaji has several awards to his credit and notable among them include Young Faculty Recognition Award of IIT Madras (2007) for excellence in teaching and research, K.N. Seetharamu Award and Medal for excellence in Heat Transfer Research (2008), Swarnajayanthi Fellowship Award of the Government of India (2008–2013), Tamil Nadu Scientist Award (2010) of the Government of Tamil Nadu, Marti Gurunath Award for excellence in teaching (2013), and Mid-Career Research Award (2015) both awarded by IIT Madras. He is Humboldt Fellow and Elected Fellow of the Indian National Academy of Engineering.  Prof. Balaji has authored 8 books. Prof. S. P. Venkateshan obtained his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, in 1977. After spending three years at Yale University, he joined Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Madras in 1982. He has been teaching subjects related to thermal Engineering to both UG and PG students for the past 32 years. He has published extensively and has more than 100 publications to his credit. The areas of his interest include interaction of natural convection with radiation, numerical and experimental heat transfer, heat transfer in space applications, and radiation heat transfer in participating media and instrumentation. Prof. Venkateshan has been Consultant to ISRO, DRDO, and BHEL in India and NASA in the USA. He has three patents to his credit in the area of instrumentation. He has also guided about 30 scholars toward the Ph.D. and a similar number of scholars toward the M.S. (by research) degree at IIT Madras.
