Dr. Sunil Kumar Sarangi
Retired Professor of Cryogenic Engineering, IIT Kharagpur
- Retired as Professor of Cryogenic Engineering from IIT Kharagpur; currently mentoring a research team at C V Raman Global University, Bhubaneswar.
- Fellow of Indian National Academy of Engineering (FNAE), and winner of Life-time achievement award of Indian Cryogenics Council (ICC) and Distinguished Alumnus Award of IIT Kharagpur.
- Has supervised close to 30 Ph Ds in the field of cryogenic refrigeration equipment, and published over 100 papers in the best international journals.
- Specialist in the field of cryocoolers, specifically the GM and Pulse Tube coolers, the devices that serve as gate way to sub-Kelvin-temperature dilution refrigerators.
- Under his mentorship, and a grant from BRNS (DAE), the C V Raman team has reached temperature of 30 K, the lowest temperature attained by any team with fully indigenous device.
- Currently, with a grant from ISRO, the team is building a 2-stage Pulse Tube cryocooler to reach 10 K at no load, and 20 Watts@20K to support Cryopumps at ISRO.
- Their next target is 4.2 K using rare-earth regenerators.
Prof. Parthasarathi Ghosh
Professor and Head of Cryogenic Engineering Centre, IIT Kharagpur.
His research activities include cryogenic process simulation, cryogenic equipment design, cryocoolers and cooling technology for superconducting devices, turbomachinery including high-speed cryogenic microturbines, acoustic and laser-induced bubbles, two-phase flow and cavitation , and cryogenic fluid management systems for sustainable transport and space propulsion. He has been involved in several national and international projects in organizations like ISRO, IPR, VECC, ITER and other industrial establishments. In ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor ) fusion Tokamak development, he has been involved as an expert member of different design review committees for cryolines and cryodistribution systems. Currently he is one of the editors of the Cryogenics journal. He has been involved in several indigenous technology developments, such as Helium Liquefier, Medical oxygen generator, Cryogenic expansion devices etc. He has joint authorship of over 120 publications in international and national journals and conference proceedings, and has been a recipient of prestigious International Awards.
