Sajid Ahammed

I'm a Doctoral Researcher at the University of Vaasa, leading the 1D simulation work in the Integrated Hydrogen-Argon Power Cycle (iHAPC) project. My research focuses on optimizing internal combustion engines for peaking power plants using argon-based gas mixtures, aiming to enhance efficiency, eliminate the need for exhaust stacks, and recycle water as fuel in a sustainable cycle.

Building on my Master's thesis work with Wärtsilä, I'm now developing closed-loop hydrogen-based power cycles. This includes integrating advanced combustion models and simulations to refine system designs, reduce emissions, and improve energy efficiency in next-generation power systems. My research interests also include hydrogen-based power cycles, alternative fuels, and propulsion systems.

I am pursuing a Doctor of Science in Technology (D.Sc. (Tech)) in Energy Technology at the University of Vaasa, specializing in the Integrated Hydrogen-Argon Power Cycle (iHAPC) as part of the Efficient Powertrain Solutions (EPS) research group. My research is funded by the Research Council of Finland (Suomen Akatemia), and my doctoral research will run full-time from 2025 to 2029. I have a keen research interest in hydrogen-based power cycles, alternative fuels, and Jet Propulsion Systems (JPS), with a focus on developing more sustainable and efficient propulsion and power generation solutions.

Outside of research, I'm an active person with a passion for exploring nature, whether in Vaasa or globally. Nature's beauty keeps me grounded and motivated. I value collaboration and am eager to work with academic and industry partners to advance clean energy technologies.
