Woodward Governor

Leading global engineering team for powertrain systems at Woodward Inc. Products developed by my teams are contributing to make our environment cleaner and engines more efficient. For On Highway market, we develop , manufacture and apply system solutions for engine controls which go on most of the LNG, CNG, Ammonia, Hydrogen, Ethanol and Methanol fueled heavy commercial vehicles, meeting toughest emissions norms of Euro 6 and OBD norms. For Transportation market, develop and apply core components like integrated throttle bodies, hot valves for exhaust and wastegate control SOGAVs (solenoid operated as admission valves) for natural gas, ammonia, hydrogen and LNG fueled engines. Large Engine Control Module for controlling high pressure common rail diesel systems, and natural gas systems. For Power Generation market, we develop, manufacture and apply, engine system solutions for gaseous fuel run generators targeted to meet global emission norms. This product line is being in much demand by customers in almost all continents. North America being on the lead for such applications. For Marine market develop and apply engine control system solutions for main propulsion engines along with traditional electro-mechanical governors. Site Lead for tech center in Windsor Colorado where we have multiple engine test labs and environmental test labs. This is where we have most exciting instruments and equipment like 3D printing, HALT chambers and latest Engine Dynamometers with Emissions bench to accurately measure engine out emissions. For small diesel markets, we develop multiple actuation and solenoid products which are used globally by various engine manufacturers. Lately have been exploring application for our products to fuel cells (balance of plant) and carbon neutral / green fuels. This includes Hydrogen, Ammonia, Methanol and Ethanol.
