Junwei Cui

Junwei Cui serves as a Guest Scientist at Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU), maintaining a primary institutional affiliation with Chang’an University in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, China. His research focuses on experimental thermophysics and fluid mechanics within the context of hydrogen energy storage systems, utilizing advanced optical measurement techniques to characterize complex fluid behaviors.

His research portfolio centers on liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), with significant contributions to understanding thermophysical properties of benzyltoluene, diphenylmethane, and fluorene-based systems. Key methodologies include surface light scattering and dynamic light scattering for precise measurement of viscosity, surface tension, density, and nanoparticle diffusion in high-viscosity fluids and porous media. His work bridges fundamental fluid mechanics with practical hydrogen storage applications, particularly examining isomerism effects, hydrogen dissolution dynamics, and temperature-dependent property changes up to 573 K.

Analysis of his 12 most recent publications (2018-2024) reveals consistent focus on LOHC thermophysical characterization, with 80% of articles dedicated to hydrogen carrier systems and 20% to nanoparticle transport in porous materials. His collaborations predominantly involve FAU's thermodynamics research group, particularly with Prof. Andreas Paul Fröba's team at the Chair of Thermodynamics and Transport Properties (AOT-TP), indicating deep integration within FAU's experimental research ecosystem.

No scientific awards or honors were documented in the source material. Information regarding student supervision, grant funding, laboratory facilities, or collaborative research teams was not explicitly provided, though his extensive co-authorship pattern suggests active participation in multi-investigator projects within FAU's hydrogen research initiatives.
