Wenguang Li

Dr. Wenguang Li is a Researcher at the University of Glasgow's School of Mathematics & Statistics, specializing in fluid dynamics and biomechanical modeling. His work bridges analytical and numerical studies of fluid systems, particularly focusing on bile flow mechanics in the biliary system and heat transfer in supercritical fluids. Current projects include vortex pump performance under rough wall conditions, CFD simulations of thermal chimneys for geothermal systems, and cavitation modeling in organic Rankine cycle systems.

Research Interests: Dr. Li's expertise spans biomechanics of soft tissues (e.g., gallbladder and venous walls), computational fluid dynamics, and energy engineering applications like heat exchanger optimization. His biomechanical modeling work has led to publications on gallbladder viscoelasticity and left ventricle post-infarction behavior.

Publications Trends: Recent studies emphasize supercritical CO2 heat transfer in novel geometries (TPMS, helical tubes) and fluid-structure interaction in pumps. His work often combines experimental data with advanced numerical simulations (CFD) to address real-world engineering challenges in energy systems and biomedical devices.

Collaborations: Active partnerships with Prof. Zhibin Yu (fluid engineering) and Prof. Xiaoyu Luo (biomechanics) are evident across multiple publications. Contributions include co-authoring a book on biliary tract modeling (2021).
