My research covers fundamental fluid mechanics with applications in environmental and industrial processes. I focus on "sustainable indoor and outdoor flows" and "efficient multiphase processes", aiming to enhance computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for complex particle-laden flows and turbulence modeling. I develop large eddy simulation (LES) and wall-stress models (WSMs) to improve accuracy and efficiency at high Reynolds numbers, and I utilise lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) for multiphysics modeling. My work has significant implications for urban air quality, pollutant dispersion, and energy-efficient building ventilation, contributing to sustainable urban design. Through collaborations and rigorous validation, I strive to develop innovative solutions to critical environmental and industrial challenges.
Here, I list some of my recent academic and extracurricular projects.
I am editing a special issue in Entropy (IF 2.7) on hybrid LES-RANS studies. The submission deadline is July 2024 (see details).
Successfully completed the fruitful programme of "Foundations of Teaching and Learning" in five modules at The University of Manchester (May 2023).
I apply hybrid LES-RANS models to wall-bounded flows to make LES with a proper estimation of wall-shear stress.
