Research Focus:

Dr. Ganapathirao’s research interests lie in fluid dynamics. He works on unsteady as well steady, mixed convection, laminar boundary layer flow problems with suction/injection.  He is particularly interested in fluid flow problems with non-uniform slot suction/injection. Ganapathirao uses numerical simulation to study mixed convection, laminar boundary layer flow problems. Problems he has worked on in the past include flow over a vertical cone, wedge, stretching sheet and plate. He has considered these works under various physical effects.

Other Interests:

Reading Books, Watching TV
