Perrine Pepiot is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Cornell University, specializing in Fluid Mechanics, Combustion, Turbulence, and Biomass. Her research focuses on the development of advanced chemical kinetic mechanisms and their reduction methods for efficient combustion modeling. She has contributed significantly to the understanding of soot reduction in oxygenated fuels, the numerical analysis of fluidized bed reactors, and the thermochemical conversion of biomass. Her work also includes the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in modeling biomass gasification and pyrolysis, as well as the development of automatic strategies for modeling transportation fuel surrogates.
