Pranay P. Nagrani works on thermal management engineering for electronics, focusing on how thermal interface materials (pastes used to conduct heat away from computer chips) degrade over time and how heat and fluid flow behave in cooling systems for servers and data centers. His work also includes modeling multiphase flows (mixtures like gas-liquid or particle-laden fluids) in industrial reactors and cooling equipment, combining experiments, rheology (study of how materials flow and deform), and computational simulation.
