PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Developing Pulsed Aerosol Loading System, Center for Filtration Research (CFR)
Spring Semester 2014
Designed and built the control hardware and program of an experimental system for pulsed aerosol loading
tests on filter media
Upgrading Control Software of UNPA, BASF Company
Fall Semester 2013
Improved the LabVIEW control software of Universal Nanoparticle Analyzer (UNPA); added new functions, such
as particle diffusion loss correction; enhanced program user interface and debugged code errors
RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Graduate Research Assistant
September 2013–present
Particle Technology Lab, College of Science and Engineering, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, Minneapolis, MN
Collaborate with area companies through the Center for Filtration Research (CFR) to study mass loading and
pressure drop on Nanofiber filters
Perform experimental and theoretical studies on the filtration of fractal aggregates
Measure penetration of silver aggregates across model screens at various sintering temperatures
Develop an analytical model for predicting effects of particle structure on filter efficiency
Continue NSF funded research on real-time structure and mass measurements for agglomerated nanoparticles
Evaluate in situ the particulate mass concentration of diesel engine emissions using a variety of instrumentation
and methods
Apply the Universal Nanoparticle Analyzer (UNPA) to investigate effects of sintering on morphology of metallic
nanoparticle agglomerates formed by spark discharge
Develop new modules for and maintained a web-based software on filter performance evaluation, dust cake
loading and filter pleating design
Conduct numerical study on diffusion-limited aggregation of nanoparticles in laminar shear to find the relation
between velocity gradient and aggregate fractal dimension
