Profile

-  08/2003 Bachelor of mechanical engineering UNIVERSITY OF MOSUL, IRAQ
-  09/2012 Master of engineering UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA "Numerical evaluation of the performance of an indirect heating integrated collector storage solar water heating system"
- PhD student, PhD project title is ‘Towards zero carbon emission hydrogen gas turbine’. The aim of this project is to provide experimental data and a numerical model for hydrogen combustion to be used in the design of a gas turbine combustor, which is able to work with methane and hydrogen fuel mixture.
