Graduate Research Student at XINTC
  • Netherlands
  • My current job since December 2023

I was responsible for the dynamic modeling of hydrogen storage at atmospheric pressure. The goal was to design a storage unit that operated within safety limits. Furthermore, the design was optimized for the local weather conditions. I set up mass and energy balances, designed a control system, and conducted experiments determining H2 permeation.

Hobbies

  • Field Hockey
    During my time in France, I had the privilege of playing at the highest level in my chosen sport. However, as I dedicated myself to my studies, I transitioned to playing at a more laid-back level. Despite the shift in intensity, my love for the sport remains strong, and I continue to find joy and relaxation in participating in athletic activities.
