Hanie Rezaie

Hanie Rezaie

Hanie holds both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Tehran, Iran. During her studies, she focused on developing a novel thermal management system for electric vehicle (EV). After graduation, she worked as a mechanical engineer in the industry for two years, focused on batteries and EVs.

Hanie joined the Industrial Fluids group at Sinton Lab in 2023 as a MASc student, with the aim of broadening her knowledge in the interdisciplinary field of Energy and fluid mechanics. She is focusing on modifying and optimizing measurement methods to quickly and accurately assess fluid properties for EV coolants.

Haoyang Deng

Haoyang Deng

Haoyang joined Sinton Lab as an Undergraduate Thesis research student in 2023 summer. He completed his BASc in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto (2024) and then joined the industrial fluids ground as a MASc student. Haoyang specializes in Solid mechanical and Mechatronics system design. His role encompasses automating and integrating our current experimental setups tailored for thermal fluid screening and integrating efficient data management capabilities thereafter. Additionally, he will fortify the setup's adaptability to diverse materials while contributing to the collection of experimental data for different materials and their mixtures.
