Anastasios Georgoulas

Anastasios Georgoulas is a Senior Lecturer and Deputy Director of Academic Communication in the Advanced Engineering Centre at the University of Brighton. He serves as Course Leader for Aeronautical/Aerospace Engineering, leading to the program's accreditation by IET and IMechE. His academic roles include leadership in research and education, with a focus on Multiphase Thermofluids and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).

Georgoulas holds a PhD in Numerical Simulation of Turbidity Currents from Democritus University of Thrace (2010), alongside advanced degrees in Structural and Hydraulic Engineering. His career includes Marie Curie Fellowships at the University of Bergamo and Caterpillar Inc., and adjunct roles at institutions like the International Hellenic University.

Research Interests: Georgoulas' work bridges CFD, Multiphase Flows, Thermofluid Physics, and Heat Transfer across scales. He develops multi-scale models for diabatic/adiabatic flows, with applications in two-phase cooling systems (e.g., heat pipes, pulsating heat pipes) and aerodynamics. His research integrates high-resolution diagnostics for thermal and fluidic characterization.

Grants & Funding: Georgoulas has secured £5.7M in funding, including a £408.5k Leverhulme Trust Grant (2022) and £2.9M EPSRC interdisciplinary grant (2022). Notable projects include biomimetic thermal management systems and space applications of heat pipes.

Awards & Recognition: He is a Fellow of the HEA, a Full Member of the EPSRC Peer Review College, and part of the European Space Agency's Fluid Physics Facility Definition Team. His work has been highlighted in Nature Communications and earned Best Oral Presentation Awards at international conferences.
