Dr Heidarian is a Research Fellow at the Laboratory for Turbulence Research in Aerospace and Combustion (LTRAC) at Monash University, with expertise in experimental fluid dynamics, hydrogen energy systems, and applied microfluidics. His research encompasses high-speed flow diagnostics, multiphase flow phenomena, and advanced energy storage technologies, with a strong emphasis on translating fundamental fluid mechanics into real-world industrial applications.

He has led and contributed to multidisciplinary initiatives across hydrogen storage, clean energy systems, and biomedical microdevices, securing substantial research funding from national and international agencies. His current research includes the investigation of adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers using advanced particle image velocimetry (PIV), the development of next-generation soft mist inhalers, and the localization of isothermal compressed air energy storage systems for grid-scale and data center applications.
