Nick Scharf

M.A.Sc. Student

Degrees:B.Eng

Nick joined the CABER team in September of 2022, while completing his fourth year of Mechanical Engineering at Carleton University. 

His interests in heat transfer, building performance, and energy efficiency of buildings were furthered after completing a building-integrated thermal energy system capstone in his fourth year. His interests led him to join the research lab to attain hands-on experience with building performance evaluation. 

Nick is currently researching the feasibility of magnesium oxide boards in Canada for his Master’s. Through this research, Nick is hoping to continue his learning of building performance by designing an experimental apparatus for 15 samples to undergo hygrothermal performance tests simultaneously.
