Qi Shu

Qi Shu is a Professor in the Compound Semiconductor Technology department at RWTH Aachen University. His research focuses on thermal engineering, fluid dynamics, and computational physics, particularly in advanced semiconductor technology applications.

Current research interests include ferrofluid-based cooling systems, particle suspension mechanics, and heat transfer optimization in complex flows. His work combines experimental studies and numerical simulations to analyze thermal convection in particle-laden systems, non-spherical particle behavior, and shear flow effects on conductivity.

Recent publications highlight trends in multiphysics modeling (LBM-DEM-FEM coupling), electromagnetic cooling systems using ferrofluids, and detailed investigations of particle rotation dynamics in nanofluids. These studies span disciplines including materials science, computational fluid dynamics, and applied thermal engineering.

Based at the Central Laboratory for Micro- and Nanotechnology (ZMNT), his lab investigates semiconductor technology with a focus on thermal management solutions for high-performance electronic systems and nanoscale fluid dynamics.
