Sadaghiani, Ali
Ali Sadaghiani (Assistant Professor, Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Sabanci
University, Istanbul, Turkey) specializes in interfacial transport and phase change phenomena.
His research primarily focuses on heat and mass transfer in boiling, condensation, evaporation,
and surface modification for energy and water systems. He is notably recognized for
his parametric studies on mixed wettable and micro/nanostructured surfaces. His research
has significantly advanced the understanding of liquid/vapor phase change mechanisms on
these surfaces. His work has been instrumental in developing more efficient thermal management
systems with applications in various industrial processes. His research has been
published in several high-impact journals and has received considerable attention in thermal
sciences. He employs theoretical, numerical, and experimental methods to enhance the efficiency
of multiphase systems, addressing critical global challenges such as climate change,
water scarcity, and energy efficiency.
