Fazlur Khan
Father of tubular designs for high-rises, designer of Sears Tower – the tallest building in the United States
Abdus Suttar Khan
Very few know about him.. one of the root causes of American Air force Air superiority, distinguished aerospace researcher for four decades with NASA, Pratt & Whitney, and the power generation company Alstom
From his four decades of research at NASA, United Technology, and Alstom, Dr. Khan invented more than 40 different alloys for commercial application in space shuttles, advanced commercial jet engines, and U.S. air force jet engines. These alloys made engines lighter, which enabled the aircraft to fly faster.
Commercial products developed
1) Nano-catalysts developed are used for in fuel flow path in advanced jet engines for high mach propulsion
2) Advanced abrasion resistant materials developed are used for increased fuel efficiencies of US AF fighter engines (Proprietary to United Technologies’ Pratt & Whitney)
3) Corrosion & fatigue resistant coatings deposited by cathodic arc process is used in advanced commercial in Pratt & Whiney jet engines (Proprietary to United Technologies’ Pratt & Whitney)
4) Electrodeposited wear resistant coatings developed is used in advanced GT24/26 industrial gas turbine engines by Alstom, Switzerland (Proprietary to Alstom, Switzerland)
5) Electrodeposited oxidation-corrosion resistant coatings used by Alstom, Switzerland in Alstom Power GT-11 industrial gas turbine engines (Proprietary to Alstom, Switzerland)
