معرفی
Qiang Cheng is a Staff Scientist at the Department of Energy and Mechanical Engineering, specializing in Energy Conversion and Systems. He holds a Doctoral degree in Engineering and Technology from the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology (2014), a Master's degree from the same institution (2011), and a Bachelor's degree from Hubei University Of Technology (2008).
His research focuses on sustainable energy solutions, alternative fuels (e.g., ammonia, hydrogen), and combustion dynamics in internal combustion engines. Key areas include numerical simulations of RCCI (Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition) engines, optical diagnostics of diesel sprays, and pre-ignition phenomena in hydrogen combustion. He is also exploring novel strategies for integrating hydrogen and ammonia into engine systems to enhance efficiency and reduce emissions.
Recent work highlights include a 2025 review on ammonia as a sustainable fuel, experimental studies on hydrogen-jet dynamics, and multi-scale diagnostics for marine diesel sprays. His research aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals related to clean energy and climate action.
Qiang leads the Ultra-H2/Cheng: Dynamics and Combustion of Ultra-High Pressure Hydrogen Jets project (2024–2028), investigating high-pressure hydrogen jet behavior. He has contributed to over 30 peer-reviewed publications and datasets, including collaborative work with institutions globally.
