Potential student project for Energy Efficiency HVAC Infection Control

Posted by Quinn Connolly on July 28, 2023

Hi Leon,

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

I am Sarthak Prasad, and I work as the Sustainable Transportation Assistant at Facilities & Services. Morgan and I are working with Sterling Laylock, from Integrating Green Technologies, on Energy-Efficient HVAC Infection Control. Last year, two of the Masters in Energy Systems, Ali Khan and Dhruvraaj Gambhire, collaborated with us on this project. I wanted to reach out to you and ask if you would be available to meet with us in the next couple of weeks? We wanted to ask if one or two of the Energy Systems graduate students would be interested in helping us out this year as well. Please send me your availability for the next couple of weeks.

 

Thank you,

Sarthak

Good afternoon Sarthak

 

Thank you for your note.
It would be a privilege if our M.Eng. students could again work with you, thank you!

Please can you send me a topic (or topics) and a brief description (or descriptions) of the work that you would like our students to do?

  1. Will you expect our students to perform measurements or will you provide them with acquired data? (Some of our students are online-only, i.e. not on campus …)
  2. Will the students be working with SafeTraces equipment / data? What other equipment might they be working with? Where will students be working?
  3. Will students analyze existing HVAC systems in our buildings or will they need to design systems for yet-to-be-integrated HVAC systems?
  4. Will the students be expected to write proposals for possible SSC funding? If so, please provide details about your financial needs, including the estimated required funds.
  5. Etc.

 

Many thanks! I look forward to your further communication.

Kind regards

Leon
