Short Bio

I am a postdoc at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUStech) with Peng Yu. I am working on the turbulent jet impingement flow structure and heat transfer problems at high speed and high temperature. My research interests include heat transfer, computational fluid dynamics, machine learning, and jet flows.

Before joining SUStech, I worked at the Department of Aeronautical and Aviation Engineering of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) for one year as a Postdoc. In PolyU, I engaged the hydrogen-oxygen two-phase flows for the coaxial swirling jet in the group of Prof. Chih-yung Wen, focusing on the problem of the unsteady phenomenon, i.e., the self-pulsation of the system. My B.E. and Ph.D. degrees were obtained from Dalian University of Technology in 2016 and 2022, respectively. I was advised by Prof. Guiyong Zhang.

Current & upcoming projects

  • Shenzhen is a young, vigor, and ambitious city in China. Its determination and eagerness to succeed in the field of high technology contribute to many very valuable high-technology companies that are famous around the world. In order to promote Shenzhen's development, we aim to solve the challenging and urgent problems based on our current studies, i.e., clean energy, semiconductor/pharmacy, and aeronautic fields.
