He possessed M.Sc. in Thermodynamics and Ph.D. in Thermal Engineering from the National Superior School of Mechanics and Aerothermics of Poitiers - France, in l980. He was a post doctorate in two-phase flow dynamics at the University of Pisa, Italy, in 1988-1989 and spent his sabbatical leave at the Texas A&M University in 2000-2001. His major area of study is two-phase flow dynamics and phase change heat transfer.
Currently, he is a full professor at the National Polytechnic Institute of Mexico. His research interests are two-phase flow dynamics, heat pipes, energy saving and, development and analysis of thermal energy systems.
Up to now, Dr. Sánchez-Silva has 38 refereed journal publications, 250 refereed papers in conference proceedings, 15 technical reports, 2 technical books, 3 chapters in technical books. He has supervised 3 PhD, 44 Master in Science and 31 bachelor thesis on two-phase flow, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, metrology and thermal systems topics.
Dr. Sanchez-Silva is a Fellow of the Societé des Ingenieurs et Scientifiques de France, Mexican Section (since l987) and a member of the Mexican Academy of Sciences since 2004.view less
