Dr. Hamid Seyf

Hamid received his B.S in Mechanical Engineering from Azad University in 2008. He then worked at Saipa Heavy Die Manufacturing Corporation for several years as a quality control and manufacturing engineer. In 2013, Hamid completed his M.S in mechanical engineering at university of Missouri-Columbia with thesis research in molecular dynamics simulation of evaporation and boiling over nanostructured surfaces. Hamid’s past research experience has been in computational fluid dynamics, electronic cooling, porous media, heat pipes, nanofluids, nanoencapsulated phase change materials, resin transfer molding processes, and turbulent flow. He joined the ASE group at Georgia Tech in 2014 and his Ph.D. was on phonon transport and  thermal conductivity in disordered materials. Hamid also worked on analyzing concentrated solar power systems with high temperature thermal storage that utilize thermophotovoltaic modules as a power cycle and has gone on to do a postdoc at Purdue University.
