Sadaf Mehdi studies boiling heat transfer, the process by which liquids absorb and move heat as they turn into vapor, with a focus on improving surfaces and fluids used in cooling systems. Recent work combines experimental studies of bubble formation and boiling on engineered surfaces with machine learning models to predict heat transfer performance and design better surface structures. Related interests include phase change materials for thermal energy storage and heat transfer in small channels.
