Introduction

Research in energy materials and nanocomposite systems encompasses the development and characterization of materials and engineered fluids intended to modify thermal and transport properties. Within this broad area, nanofluids and nanoparticle-enhanced systems are studied for their relationships with heat transfer, thermo-physical behavior and entropy generation. The publication records available in  Mandal’s Scopus Preview profile provide examples of research situated within these themes.[1]

Research Contributions

The available publication entries indicate research activity in thermal-fluid and materials-related topics. One 2026 article, titled Enhancing the Thermo-physical properties of Fe3O4 doping with MWCNT, is listed in Materials Letters. The record associates the publication with S. K. Mandal and co-authors and identifies the study as concerning the thermo-physical properties of a system involving Fe3O4 and MWCNT. [1]

A second 2026 article listed in the supplied profile is titled Augmented heat transfer and entropy generation in structured minichannels using MWCNT–water nanofluids. The publication appears in Materials Letters and lists Swaroop Kumar Mandal among its authors. Its title identifies heat transfer, entropy generation, structured minichannels and MWCNT–water nanofluids as the principal research themes.

  • Investigation of thermo-physical properties in nanoparticle-enhanced material systems.
  • Research involving MWCNT-based nanofluids and nanocomposite-related systems.
  • Analysis of heat transfer behavior and entropy generation in engineered flow configurations.
  • Application-oriented research associated with energy materials and nanocomposite systems.

Publications

The supplied Scopus Preview extract displays selected records from a profile containing 25 documents. Because the supplied source is a limited Scopus Preview view, the publication list below is restricted to the records visible in the document. [1]

  1. Mandal, Swaroop Kumar; Joshi, Yogesh G.; Jash, Chitradeep; Pawar, Amol; Deshmukh, Rahul G. Enhancing the Thermo-physical properties of Fe3O4 doping with MWCNT. Materials Letters, 2026. [1]
  2. Kumar, Abhishek; Mandal, Swaroop Kumar; Hassan, M. A. Augmented heat transfer and entropy generation in structured minichannels using MWCNT–water nanofluids. Materials Letters, 2026.

No DOI is provided for either publication in the supplied PDF extract. DOI identifiers have therefore not been added in order to avoid introducing bibliographic information that is not supported by the supplied source.

Research Impact

The supplied Scopus Preview profile reports 184 citations across 25 documents and an h-index of 10. These figures provide quantitative indicators of the visibility of the indexed publication record within the Scopus database represented by the supplied profile. [1]

The profile also reports 41 co-authors and two preprints, while the visible publication records demonstrate continuing research activity in materials and thermal-fluid topics. The supplied source does not provide a complete qualitative assessment of the societal, industrial or technological impact of the research, so such effects are not inferred here.

Award Suitability

For the purposes of the Indian Scientist Awards recognition profile, Dr. Swaroop Kumar Mandal is presented under the Best Researcher Award with the specified subject area of Energy material and nanocomposite. The documented affiliation, Scopus profile and publication record provide identifiable academic information associated with the researcher. [1]

The available source establishes bibliometric and publication information but does not itself state an award-selection decision, evaluation score or formal assessment methodology. Accordingly, this section records the academic information relevant to the recognition profile without assigning a comparative ranking or unsupported evaluative score.

Conclusion

Dr. Swaroop Kumar Mandal’s supplied academic profile documents an affiliation with the Dr. D. Y. Patil Institute of Technology, Pune, and a Scopus-indexed research record comprising 25 documents, 184 citations and an h-index of 10. The visible publications address thermo-physical properties, MWCNT-based nanofluids, heat transfer and entropy generation, providing a documented connection with the subject area of energy materials and nanocomposites. [1] The information in this article is based primarily on the supplied Scopus Preview extract and should be understood within the limitations of that source.
