Our research focuses on thermal-fluid science and transport phenomena across scales, with particular emphasis on the interactions between fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transport near solid surfaces, within porous media, and across fluid–fluid interfaces. We investigate how interfacial and bulk transport phenomena can be controlled to address challenges in energy conversion, thermal management and aerospace systems operating under extreme conditions.
To achieve this, we employ experimental methods to reveal the fundamental dynamics of interface-driven processes, in multiphase systems, and across different time and length scales (micro to macro). Our work combines optical flow and heat transfer diagnostics, thermophysical measurement techniques, and micro/nanofabrication methods, alongside theoretical and numerical modeling approaches.
