2) Please describe how would this program help you in achieving your future professional and personal

goals? (10 Lines) *


I am working as a teaching\research assistant in mechanical power engineering department, Zagazig
University. As a faculty member in my university, teaching and research activities became a theme of my
personality. Really, I found my self in both of them and can't give them up. And actually to do them
properly , I must go to one of the top ranked universities such as Caltech or MIT where I will find great
experimental facilities and great professors that unfortunately we can not find here in Egypt. But as we
all know, to join such great universities, one must get very high TOEFL and GRE score which make my
application very competitive comparable with Others from different countries around the world. So I
hope if I get this grant I can improve my current TOEFL ibt score which is 94\120 and get more than
100\120 and to get high GRE score.

There is no doubt that we as Egyptians , especially at this current critical time , need so many
community services that the governments can not provide to all of us. For examples we are suffering
from shortages in the number of qualified schools that provide free learning. And the same can be said
about hospitals which are not enough and most of them do not have the required equipment. But if I
were to choose a community service to participate in, it would be joining a charity organization that
support scientific research. And this is because of my current job as a teaching\research assistant at
zagazig university which makes me qualified enough to help anyone want to pursue his\her graduate
studies by giving them all information required about master and PhD programs in general . And if
he\she has the same specialty as me, I will give them my previous experience and even help them with
there future work.

3) Mention an academic, personal, or professional achievement. And explain why you consider it a
success. (10 Lines) *
Thanks to Allah, I have so many academic and personal achievements. For personal achievement, I
consider myself as lucky man to be married to an amazing woman from a very good family and Allah
bless us by giving us a wonderful baby that make our life as heaven. But actually I will mention one
academic achievement that I consider the best in my life till now which is graduating with rank no 2 of
my class. And I like this achievement the best because I was a very normal student at the first year in
faculty of engineering that at this time my biggest hope was to just succeed. But after this year I
challenged myself to be no one for the rest four year in the faculty because I believe in my potentials.
And can reach my goal and become ranked no one of my class and not just that but I kept this position
for the last three years before getting graduation.



Please briefly explain your actual research by showing how it is related to sustainable
development and demonstrating your interdisciplinary interest. (max. 4500 characters)*
My current research in my master thesis is about heat transfer enhancement in pipes and
the importance in this research is that it leads to saving in energy and cost. Because of the rapid
increase in energy demand in all over the world, both reducing energy lost related with
ineffective use and enhancement of energy in the meaning of heat have become an increasingly
significant task for design and operation engineers for many systems. Heat transfer enhancement
technology has been improved and widely used in heat exchanger applications; such as
refrigeration, automotive, process industry, chemical industry, etc. One of the widely used heat
transfer enhancement technique is inserting different shaped elements with different geometries
in channel flow. There exist numerous studies on heat transfer enhancement by inserting fins,
twisted tapes baffles and coiled wires.
Heat transfer enhancement by inserting protrusions is commonly used application in tubes.
Protrusions improve the heat transfer by interrupting the wall sublayer and discontinuing the
development of boundary layer. This yields flow turbulence, separation and reattachment leading
to higher heat transfer rates. So I hope my experience in this research beside my knowledge in
field of heat transfer, thermodynamics and combustion help me sustainable development in solar
power plants or biogas plants for examples.

What new perspective are you providing to sustainability research? / What is your professional
goal? (max. 4500 characters)*

About what I can provide to sustainability research, I hope from my experience from working as a
research\teaching assistant at mechanical power engineering department, Zagazig University and
from my knowledge of many important sciences such as heat transfer, thermodynamics,
combustion .etc. that I can add some value to sustainability research. And about my professional
goal, I hope if I get accepted that I can get knowledge about so many fields especially wind energy
and how to do a site assessment based on geophysical measurements, how to plan ,design a wind
farm and how to lower costs for wind turbine manufacture and operation, and to integrate it into
the energy supply system. And not just that, I hope also to get knowledge about biogas power
plants and how to utilize opportunities for these technologies in providing sustainable energy
supplies. And the same things can be said about solar energy.

Why is Germany interesting for you as a research location? Please also indicate which institutions
of this years science forum are most relevant to you and why. (max. 4500 characters)*
In my opinion, Germany is the best option for any researcher around the world at any field of
study especially when we are speaking about renewable energy . Because Germany is a country of
many facets a country that welcomes ideas, cultures and people from all over the world. Great
value is placed on innovation and high-tech, yet at the same time there is a strong regional
awareness of tradition and culture. About the institute that is most relevant to me, I think it is
Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy and Energy System Technology and the reason behind that is
that I find all what I want to know from green talent in it. They are specialized in wind energy and
bioenergy and energy storage system which exactly I want to learn.


What do you expect to gain from the Green Talents Forum for your future career? (max. 4500
characters)*
About what I expect to gain from the Green Talents Forum for your future career, actually I think it
will be a lot of things. The most important is the knowledge and research about renewable energy
especially wind energy, solar energy and biomass . Because here in Egypt we are suffering from
energy crisis so we are in deep need to apply all kinds of renewable energies as soon as possible.
And of course, to get this knowledge from Germany that will give me experience and knowledge
no one can get So it will give me great advantage in my future career.

I am working as a teaching\research assistant in mechanical power engineering department, Zagazig
University. As a faculty member in my university, teaching and research activities became a theme of my
personality. Really, I found my self in both of them and can't give them up. And actually to do them
properly , I must go to one of the top ranked universities such as Caltech or MIT.....etc where I will find
great experimental facilities and great professors that unfortunately we can not find here in Egypt.And
to be accepted at these universities, one need to build himself very well in terms of research experience.
So Egypt Scholars represents to me a great chance to increase my research experience and therefore
increase my opportunity to be accepted at any good university.
