Career Summary
Biography
Professor Behdad Moghtaderi's research expertise is in the general field of energy and the environment. He has broad experience, knowledge and achievements in this field, particularly in application areas, such as renewable energy resources (e.g. biomass combustion / gasification, and geothermal power cycles), fire safety science, hydrogen powered micro-energy systems, and energy efficiency in buildings. Prof Moghtaderi has worked with both reacting and non-reacting flows, spanning gaseous and particle-laden flow from laboratory to pilot-scale experimental facilities and full-scale plants. His experience spans both the experimental, involving a wide range of laser-diagnostic and conventional techniques, to modelling using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). All are of direct relevance to the research program of the PRC-Energy. Prof Moghtaderi has worked closely with industry, government (Federal Government Geothermal Industry Round Table, Australian Greenhouse Office, etc) and international bodies (the International Energy Agency, IEA) on his research activities informing policy and practice. He served as the Honorary Secretary of The Australian and New Zealand Section of the Combustion Institute between 2007-2010. Within his area of expertise, Prof Moghtaderi has jointly published in excess of 220 articles and holds five patents. Since joining the University of Newcastle in 1999, Prof Moghtaderi has attracted in excess of $32M from the Australian Research Council (ARC) and industry to support his research activities. During this period he has secured 8 ARC-Discovery grants, 12 ARC-Linkage grants, 9 ARC-LIEF grants, 13 nationally competitive grants from none-ARC schemes, 23 industry grants and 21 University grants. Prof Moghtaderi greatly values the importance of research training and, as such, has been heavily involved with the supervision of postgraduate students. Since 1999, Prof Moghtaderi has had 14 PhD and two MSc completions by students under his supervision.

Research expertise
The underlying theme of my research is Thermo-Fluid Engineering encompassing applications in the general field of energy and the environment. The focus of my research is development of technologies suitable for direct/indirect minimisation of greenhouse emissions. I have broad experience, knowledge and interests in this field, particularly in the following application areas which I have established since joining the University of Newcastle in 1999:
- Renewable energy systems (e.g. biomass combustion, gasification and co-firing, as well as geothermal power);
- Advanced clean coal technologies (e.g. oxy-fuel and chemical looping combustion);
- Hydrogen powered micro-energy systems with an emphasis on microfluidics and micro-fabrication;
- Energy efficiency (e.g. energy efficiency in buildings, energy efficient desalination), and fire physics.
My research is underpinned by a wide range of novel and conventional experimental (e.g. laser-diagnostic, Micro-PIV) and modelling (e.g. computational fluid dynamics, CFD) techniques. I have extensive experience with both reacting and non-reacting flows, spanning gaseous and particle-laden systems from laboratory to pilot-scale facilities and full-scale plants.
My research is cutting edge, well respected and internationally recognised. I have worked closely with industry, government, and international organisations on topics related to my research informing/influencing policy and practice. Through my research I have made significant contributions to the application areas listed above. The unique feature of these contributions is the fact that they provide detailed fundamental information about various technologies under conditions pertinent to the full-scale systems. As such, they have immediate applications in the engineering design of energy systems.
