Dr. Mohamed M. Awad
Mansoura University, Egypt
Mohamed M. Awad is an associate professor at mechanical power engineering department, faculty of engineering, Mansoura university, Mansoura, Egypt. He was a postdoctoral fellow in mechanical engineering in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. He received his Ph.D. from Memorial University of Newfoundland in 2007 and his undergraduate degree and his master’s degree from Mansoura University, Egypt, in 1996 and 2000, respectively. His research focus is on the development of robust models for characterizing transport phenomena using fundamental theory. These models are validated using experimental and/or numerical results. He is the author of 3 book chapters. He has published more than 65 papers in refereed journals and conference proceedings in these areas. Presently, his research is focused on the modeling of complex fluid dynamics and heat transfer problems in internal flows. These include transport in porous media, compact heat exchangers, two-phase flow, microchannel flows, non-Newtonian flows, and thermal design/optimization of energy systems. He is a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). He was also a recipient of the ASME International Petroleum Technology Institute (IPTI) Award in 2005 and 2006. He won silver medal at 45th International Exhibition of Inventions, Geneva, Swiss, 29 March - 2 April 2017. Currently, he is Regional Editor of Africa and Australia, Editorial Board, Journal of Thermal Engineering, Yildiz Technical University Press, Turkey & Editorial Board Member of International Journal of Oil, Gas and Coal Engineering & Editorial Board Member of International Journal of Petroleum Technology.
