Thermal systems engineer with research experience at TÜBİTAK who modelled a solar-assisted ground-source heat-pump system.
What I'm looking for
At Uludag University, I developed an hourly thermal-system model for a solar-assisted ground-source heat pump for greenhouse heating. It combined a heat pump, solar thermal collectors, and phase-change-material thermal storage.
I modelled 4,368 hours of seasonal operation, including heating loads, heat-pump performance, ground heat transfer, and solar energy. I also sized the system components and compared its economics with conventional heating alternatives.
At TÜBİTAK, I conducted CFD and thermal-fluid analyses using ANSYS Fluent, and applied Python to process and visualize simulation results. My work included preparing geometry and meshes, setting up solutions, and post-processing.
At Yildiz Technical University, I conducted research in CFD, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and thermal-fluid systems. Earlier, as a Design Engineer at Hitit Makina - Hitit Machine, I designed mechanical components and assemblies and prepared manufacturing drawings and technical documentation.
