Claudia Masselli is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Department of Industrial Engineering of University of Salerno (Italy). She earned the Ph.D title in Industrial Engineering on March 2017, discussed the thesis entitled "Magnetic refrigeration an attraction toward our future". The main research topic is solid-state refrigeration both experimentally and numerically. Through the development of two-dimensional finite element models, she investigates the energetic performances of different solid-state materials in solid-state refrigerator. Her researches embrace, also, the energy and environmental optimization of vapor compression cycles. She is the winner of the Young Researcher Award Certificate of merit” for the paper “Analyzing the energetic performances of AMR regenerator working with different magnetocaloric materials: investigations and viewpoints”, presented at the 2nd AIGE/IIETA International Conference and 11th Aige National Conference on "Energy Conversion, Management, Recovery, Saving, Storage and Renewable Systems Genoa (Italy), on 12-13 June 2017.
