Academic Background and Professional Publications
* Licensed Professional Engineer in Texas,
* Ph.D. Mechanical Engineering at Cairo University in "power" science with extensive research in the following subject:
"Thermodynamic Investigation of Integrated Solar Combined Cycle"
The research gives:
1. Classification of the conventional combined cycle when it is integrated with solar energy
2. A computer model to perform the thermodynamic analysis of the cycle components.
3. Analysis of the Cycle based on the First Law of Thermodynamics.
4. Cycle energy analysis giving the optimum value of the solar collector area.
5. Application of the research to compare between different locations in Egypt to locate the Integrated Solar Combined Cycle.
