Hariraja Thothadri is currently a master’s student and researcher at the Engines and Combustion Lab. He experiments with novel dual-fuel combustion (DFC) strategies to increase diesel engine performance and reduce engine out emissions. His primary research is centered around investigating the optimal location of the 50% combustion event (CA50) in DFC with various oxygenated fuels on heavy-duty diesel engines. Moreover, he is developing a strategy to precisely control CA50 location in real-time. Before joining ECL, he worked as a maintenance engineer in the field of heavy-duty hydraulics and pneumatics presses. Hariraja completed his BE in Mechanical Engineering in India.
