    To pursue a degree in engineering, I chose my father’s Alma Mater. Founded in 1829, École Centrale de Paris is one of the oldest and most prestigious engineering schools in France. Among its notable alumni are Gustave Eiffel (1855) designer of the Eiffel Tower and the internal structure of the Statue of Liberty in New York; André Michelin (1877), French industrialist and founder of Michelin Tyre Company; Armand Peugeot (1895), founder of automobile maker Peugeot PSA; Etienne Oehmichen…

    Students are normally admitted to ECP after taking 3 years of competitive classes préparatoires (prépas). The workload is one of the highest in the world. Completing the prépas in the top 4% guaranteed Advanced Placement to the P. E. program. Alternatively, graduate students holding a Masters Degree have the option to apply for consideration for entry as a Second Year Student, for which there are only five openings. I was fortunate to secure one of these 5 places.

    I developed a Finite Element Analysis code (FEM) in Fortran 77 for the solution of the Poisson equation using polynomial Gaussian quadrature on triangular elements for my Master's Thesis.

    In the Summer of my graduation, my father pulled some strings to get me an internship with Thomson-CSF. The Department Chief was not pleased with this arrangement. He put me in a dark corridor with the task of debugging a Fortran code they could not get to work. I figured it calculated the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of large matrices using a variation of the QR iterative algorithm, a few thousand lines. By the next afternoon I had the code up and running. I found a variable TR008 mistyped as TRO08, among other things.

    Apparently this fortuitous turn of events made an impression. I was moved to an executive desk in a large office with windows ☼, given full library access and tasked with calculating the propagation of waves through rectangular waveguide for radar and satellite communications!

I truly believe knowledge is to be shared and the key to empower others.

    ❝ KNOWLEDGEABLE AND PATIENT ❞
    ❝ Jean-Michel is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and comformative to students with special needs. As a mother to a son with ADHD, Jean-Michel has captured his attention and has taught him a lot, in such a short period of time. Excellent find! Would definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you Jean-Michel ! ❞
    – Anthony, Goodyear AZ

    ❝ PHENOMENAL TUTOR WITH A PASSION TO TEACH ❞
    ❝ Jean-Michel is an excellent teacher. While browsing for a Physics tutor, I had noticed how meticulous his profile was concerning the subjects he was qualified to teach, there were numerous higher division sciences and math. What really impressed me was the enthusiasm that came across from just reading his profile, I could sense he enjoyed to learn and then to teach students so they could conceptually understand the material. Our first meeting did not disappoint, he took his time explaining the material. No tutor can give you a good grade, its up to the student to put in the hours of studying and practice problems; but I feel confident that I will be able to tackle any issues I may have in the future with Jean-Michel's help. I plan on meeting with him weekly not only to work on Physics, but because he makes Physics enjoyable.❞

  • Methods and Apparatuses for Removal and Transport of Thermal Energy - M. S. El-Genk and J.-M. Tournier

    Issued United States Patent No. 8,073,096

    Methods and apparatuses are provided for the removal and transportation of thermal energy from a heat source to a distant complex for use in thermochemical cycles or other processes. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a hybrid heat pipes/thermosyphon intermediate heat exchanger system that is divided into three distinct sections, namely: an evaporation chamber, a condensation chamber, and a working fluid transport section of liquid and vapor counter-current flows.

    Methods and Apparatuses for Removal and Transport of Thermal Energy , M. S. El-Genk and J.-M. Tournier.

    Methods and apparatuses are provided for the removal and transportation of thermal energy from a heat source to a distant complex for use in thermochemical cycles or other processes. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a hybrid heat pipes/thermosyphon intermediate heat exchanger system that is divided into three distinct sections, namely: an evaporation chamber, a condensation…

    Methods and apparatuses are provided for the removal and transportation of thermal energy from a heat source to a distant complex for use in thermochemical cycles or other processes. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a hybrid heat pipes/thermosyphon intermediate heat exchanger system that is divided into three distinct sections, namely: an evaporation chamber, a condensation chamber, and a working fluid transport section of liquid and vapor counter-current flows.
