Konstantinos Braimakis
Dr. Braimakis completed his PhD in 2018 at the Laboratory of Steam Boilers and Thermal Plants of the School of Mechanical Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens, Greece under the supervision of Prof. Sotirios Karellas, after
obtaining his Diploma in Mechanical Engineering (Specializing in Energy Engineering) at the same institution. The topic of his doctoral thesis was the energetic, exergetic and thermoeconomic optimization of advanced Organic Rankine Cycle systems.
His research interests include the energy-exergy and thermoeconomic analysis and optimisation of decentralized thermal energy conversion systems. These include waste heat recovery, Organic Rankine Cycle, thermal cooling, generation/ rigeneration/ polygeneration applications driven by waste heat, biomass, solar and geothermal energy as well as hybrid energy systems.
