Andrei Khodak is Principal Engineering Analyst at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) where he performs multi-physics modeling including plasma simulation, magneto-hydrodynamics, computational fluid dynamics, turbulence modelling, heat, and mass transfer. He worked on analysis and engineering of many existing and future fusion devices, including ITER, DIII-D (San Diego), CFETR (China), NSTX (Princeton). His primary research areas are liquid metal plasma-facing components, tritium breeding blankets, computational fluid dynamics, magnetohydrodynamics; plasma-material interactions, He received the M.Sc. degree in engineering physics and the Ph.D. degree in physics and mathematics from the St. Petersburg State Polytechnic University. Since then, he held various research and engineering positions in industry and academia, all related to fluid mechanics and heat transfer before joining PPPL in 2010.
