Higor Odilon Gottgtroy

Mechanical engineer graduated from the Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ) in 2015. He completed his master's degree in mechanical engineering at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) in 2025. Has interest in heat transfer and computational fluid mechanics. In his master's dissertation, he developed a numerical code to simulate a two-dimensional flow in a control valve. This work used the finite element method as the numerical method and the semi-Lagrangian method as the search algorithm. He currently works at the National Center of Control and Logistics of Petrobras Transporte S.A. (Transpetro)
