WORK HISTORY
Phd Candidate - Cfd Simulations @Plenesys
Plasmalysis processes produce hydrogen (H2) and solid carbon black from the thermal cracking of methane without CO2 emissions. CFD simulations are a key solution to make the development of such processes quicker and cheaper. In order to improve the CFD simulations’ accuracy, my PhD aims at coupling a solid carbon particle model to the CFD simulation, and model the radiation heat transfer impacting the particles. Another related goal is to be able to predict the quality of the plamaysis’s products.I undertook a PhD journey to improve my understanding of computational fluid dynamics, learn research methodologies, and contribute to the development of new promising technologies. I am hired by the company Plenesys, supervised by the IFPEN research institute and enrolled at Université Paris-Saclay.

ABOUT PAUL SAINT-AMAND
Junior engineer specialised in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and energetics. Interested in the fields of energy, aerospace and aeronautics. And driven by the search for innovation and energy efficiency. I am currently pursuing a PhD in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) focused on enhancing the modeling of solid carbon particles formation and hydrogen production in the process of methane plasma pyrolysis.
