Simulation and experimental analysis of hovering and flight of a quadrotor (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Weerasinghe, R., & Monasor, M. (2017, July). Simulation and experimental analysis of hovering and flight of a quadrotor. Paper presented at HEFAT Conference, Slovenia

Quadcopters were the first heavier than air vertical take-off landing vehicles. Quadrotors have become increasingly popular in the recent years finding a great variety of applications in different fields such as surveillance and small goods transport...

Thermal management of downhole measuring tools using thermoelectric cooling; A numerical and experimental investigation (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Weerasinghe, R., & Hughes, T. P. (2016, July). Thermal management of downhole measuring tools using thermoelectric cooling; A numerical and experimental investigation. Paper presented at 12th International Conference on Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics, Malaga, Spain

Vertical seismic profiling (VSP) is a common geophysical technology used in oil and gas investigation in deep wells. VSP provides high resolution and dependable results but is subjected to high temperatures and harsh well environments. As these wells...

CFD modelling of thermo-electric devices for thermal management in downhole tools (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Weerasinghe, R., & Hughes, T. (2015, September). CFD modelling of thermo-electric devices for thermal management in downhole tools. Paper presented at Therminic 2015, Paris, France

Investigation of oil and gas fields using vertical seismic profiling subjects the electronics used to extreme temperatures and pressures. As wells become deeper, the need for effective thermal management in instrumentation and the demands placed on t...
