BIO
I am Bijan Darbari, a Ph.D. candidate and casual staff member in the field of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Tasmania. I completed my Master's degree at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad in 2018, where I conducted several research projects on solar thermal systems using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation techniques. The outcomes of these studies have been published in high-impact journals.
With over seven years of engineering experience, a practical approach to research, and ongoing collaboration with the Centre for Renewable Energy and Power Systems (CREPS), my work focuses on developing feasible cooling solutions to manage heat dissipation in renewable power systems.

PROJECT TITLE
Thermofluid Analysis of Micro-channel Heat Sinks in the Application of Cooling IGBT Power Modules
SUPERVISORY TEAM
Prof. Xiaolin Wang
PROJECT SUMMARY
The Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) power module is a compact switching device and a critical component in many power inverters. It is widely used in renewable energy applications that demand high power output, including electric vehicles, wind turbines, and solar power plants. Due to its high heat generation and compact structure, an efficient and space-saving cooling system is essential to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
