David Sedarsky

David Sedarsky is an Associate Professor at Chalmers University of Technology, working within the Transport, Energy and Environment division of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences. His research focuses on applied optics and light-matter interaction for advanced imaging, with particular emphasis on characterization of dense sprays for diesel, aerospace, and automotive fuel injection systems.

Dr. Sedarsky's research interests span laser-based diagnostics and imaging methods, optical measurements of turbulence, and novel analysis of optical signals for time-resolved dynamics. He specializes in the development of analytical and optical methods for visualization of fuel sprays and improvement of combustion in engines. His work combines experimental approaches with advanced data analysis techniques to understand complex fluid dynamics in spray formation and combustion processes.

His publication record shows a strong focus on spray dynamics, fuel injection systems, and advanced optical measurement techniques. Recent work has expanded into electric vehicle powertrain efficiency, demonstrating the interdisciplinary nature of his research that bridges traditional combustion engineering with emerging sustainable transportation technologies.

Dr. Sedarsky is actively involved in research projects including "Highly Efficient Electric Vehicle Part 2 (HEFE 2)" (2024-2026) and "HEFE - Energieffektivare elfordon" (2020-2024), both funded by the Swedish Energy Agency, focusing on energy conversion, propulsion systems, and combustion/spray technologies for more efficient vehicles.
