Wonsik Song

Wonsik Song is a Research Fellow at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), based in the Department of Energy and Process Engineering. His research focuses on combustion dynamics, turbulent flames, and hydrogen/ammonia combustion, with a strong emphasis on computational fluid dynamics and numerical simulations. He has contributed to studies on flame propagation, heat release characteristics, and the application of high-fidelity methods like direct numerical simulations (DNS) to analyze complex reactive flows.

His work spans both experimental and computational analyses of hydrogen-air and ammonia-air mixtures in various combustion regimes, including MILD (Moderately Pressurized Ignition Delayed) conditions. Key research areas include turbulent flame interactions, radical concentrations in lean flames, and the impact of turbulence on combustion efficiency. Song’s studies often address energy applications, aiming to improve combustion models for cleaner and more efficient energy systems.

Publications highlight his expertise in analyzing flame structures, dissipation rates, and the integration of GPU acceleration for simulating shock waves and stiff chemistry. While no formal awards are listed, his contributions to combustion science reflect a deep engagement with both fundamental and applied research challenges.

No advising roles or grant details are explicitly mentioned in the provided texts. His work is primarily centered on computational and analytical methods, with a focus on advancing understanding of combustion processes in turbulent and high-pressure environments.
