Engineering, Shandong University, Jinan, China in 2000, after graduating from
Shandong Polytechnic University with a master’s degree. He was promoted to
associate professor and was selected as a supervisor for graduate students in
thermal engineering in 2008. Since then, he led a research group focusing on
projects related to heat and mass-transfer enhancement, especially energy-saving
research on thermal power plants. From 2003 to 2009, he worked on the
reliability of heat transfer bundles and thermal system optimization of power
plants as a doctoral student at Xi’an Jiaotong University. From 2015 to 2016,
he did his research at Rutgers University as a visiting scholar. He was
directly involved in a number of energy-saving engineering projects and
achieved rich experience in engineering. He is an expert in the area of
experimental and engineering heat transfer and is also proficient in the FLUENT
and FORTRAN programs. He has 89 publications and an h-index of 17 (Scopus, 8
