معرفی
Marco Cavazzuti is an Associate Professor at the Department of Engineering Sciences and Methods (DISMI) at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. His research focuses on thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and energy systems, with a particular emphasis on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), heat transfer, and renewable energy applications. Cavazzuti teaches courses in Energy Engineering, Thermofluid Dynamics, and Industrial Heat Engineering, integrating theoretical and practical components with computational tools like OpenFOAM and Python.
His research interests include multi-scale modeling of respiratory droplet transport for infectious disease risk assessment, plate-fin heat exchanger optimization, and thermal management of electric motors. He has contributed to projects like the IDEAS initiative for multi-source heat pump systems and the analysis of tunnel ventilation systems using 1D finite volume models. Cavazzuti's work spans both academic and industrial collaborations, addressing challenges in energy efficiency, CFD validation, and thermal system design.
Key research trends in his publications include CFD-based modeling of complex flows (e.g., micro-channels, swirled jets), epidemiological droplet transport analysis, and optimization of thermal systems for renewable energy integration. He has also explored applications in automotive chassis design and cardiovascular flow dynamics using ultrasound and computational methods.
