Dr. Narasimha Mangadoddy is an associate professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Hyderabad, India. He was awarded the Ph.D. in Mining Engineering in 2010 from the University of Queensland, Australia. Before joining IIT, he worked at TATA Steel India, JKMRC-Australia, on various mineral processing projects. His areas of interest include computational modeling ranging from CFD, DEM, CFD, and DEM for multi-phase flows, particulate technology, mineral processing, slurry rheology, and transport processes of separation devices. He has two international patents and has authored about 75 referred publications. His research is supported by grants (~600 Lakhs) from SERB-DST, Ministry of Mines, Ministry of Education, Hindustan Zinc Limited, R&D TATA Steel, R&D NMDC, Clairs Engineers Private Limited, and Tega Industries Private Limited. In December 2020, he was inducted as the International Advisory Committee member for IMPC from India, representing Academic Research.



Dr. Sudev Das is currently working as an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Calicut. He obtained his Ph.D. in heat transfer engineering from the NIT Agartala. His research interests involve phase change heat transfer, solar thermal energy storage, and novel surface engineering. He has multiple collaborative research works with Kyushu University, Japan, and University of Trento, Italy. He has published 18 research papers in SCI journals and 15 international conferences to his credit. His research group has established a state-of-the-art two-phase flow test rig established with a sponsored research project. He is also a reviewer of journals of national and international repute. He has organized various programs such as faculty development programs, workshops, and seminars in the capacity of coordinator.
