Dr. Saikat Biswas | Operations Research and Statistical Optimization | Best Researcher Award

IIT Roorkee | India

Dr. Saikat Biswas is an Indian chemical engineer and academic whose research primarily focuses on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), multiphase flow, and microfluidics, with a special emphasis on droplet dynamics including breakup, splitting, and the transition from dripping to jetting in complex microchannel geometries. He earned his PhD in Chemical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (2016–2023), where his doctoral work investigated droplet breakup dynamics in confined microscale flows, and previously completed both his M.Tech and B.Tech in Chemical Engineering at the National Institute of Technology Agartala. Throughout his academic journey, he has published 14 documents, accumulating 41 citations and achieving an h-index of 3, reflecting his growing impact in the field. His contributions include both numerical and computational studies, such as two-dimensional and three-dimensional simulations of droplet splitting at T-junctions and multifurcating channels, investigations of flow-focusing geometries, and analyses of the role of viscosity ratio, surface tension, and channel design in influencing microfluidic droplet behaviour. Skilled in advanced tools such as ANSYS Fluent, COMSOL Multiphysics, OpenFOAM, and MATLAB, he integrates computational methods with engineering applications to address fundamental and applied challenges. Recognized as hard-working, adaptable, and collaborative, Biswas continues to contribute to the advancement of microfluidics and multiphase flow research.
