Khushwant is a Ph.D. research scholar at the University of Twente, Netherlands, focusing on the development and testing of long duration high temperature thermochemical energy storage solutions for heat and power generation using waste heat and renewable energy to attend sustainability. His research interests include working on the energy-water nexus, like solar energy, thermal energy storage, thermal management, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), water desalination etc.

Prior to joining his Ph.D. program, Khushwant worked with Dell Technologies as a CFD/Thermal Engineer for two and a half years. He earned his Master's degree in 2023 from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Ropar, India, under the guidance of Dr. Himanshu Tyagi, focusing on server thermal management and the performance optimization of 1.5U over 1U servers. Additionally, he developed a thermal model for membrane distillation during his Master's tenure. Khushwant was also a recipient of the SURI program at Arizona State University, USA. He is well verse in Ansys Icepak, Fluent, Star-CCM+, FloTherm, COMSOL, MATLAB, SolidsWorks, SpaceClaim etc. In his free time, he enjoys playing sports, solving Rubik's cubes, exploring new places, and cooking.
