Niccolo Giannetti

Niccolo Giannetti is currently an Associate Professor at Waseda University, affiliated with the Department of Applied Mechanics and Aerospace Engineering and the Waseda Institute for Advanced Study. His career spans roles including Assistant Professor at Waseda University (2017-2021) and Research Associate (2014-2017).

• Doctor of Engineering, Waseda University
• Professional Engineer, Association of Professional Engineers of Florence

Giannetti's research focuses on thermal engineering and fluid dynamics, particularly in heat and mass transfer, thermodynamic optimization, and absorption/refrigeration systems. He explores microchannel heat exchangers, two-phase flow distribution, and genetic programming for system modeling. His work integrates machine learning for performance prediction and variational principles in entropy production analysis.

His recent publications emphasize heat pump optimization, ANN-based HVAC monitoring, and sorption systems. Awards include recognition from JSRAE, Elsevier, and IIR. Giannetti contributes to international standards (ISO, IEA) and serves on conference committees (ISHPC, IIR). Key publications address flow maldistribution, void fraction modeling, and energy-efficient desiccant systems using ionic liquids.
