Ben started working under Professor Lucht in 2022 as a Master's student in ME. His bachelor's degree is in Mechanical Engineering from Kansas State University. Ben came to Purdue to focus on combustion research and his current project focuses on nanosecond dual-pump coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering.
Dr. Satija's research is focused on developing laser based techniques and tools for performing measurements in reacting flows and plasmas. He has applied several linear and non-linear spectroscopic and imaging techniques towards studying laminar and turbulent flame combustion at atmospheric pressure. These techniques are used to measure scalar and vector quantities such as temperature, species concentration and velocity. A deeper understanding of combustion can lead to a more efficient design of engines, furnaces while simultaneously reducing emissions injurious to health and environment.
