Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Mechanics

His primary scientific interests are in Meteorology, Mechanics, Natural ventilation, Heat pump and Materials science. His work on Solar gain as part of general Meteorology research is often related to Extraction, thus linking different fields of science. His Mechanics research integrates issues from Airflow, Thermodynamics and Orifice plate.

His Natural ventilation research incorporates elements of Thermal comfort and Room air distribution. His Heat pump research includes elements of Computational fluid dynamics and Fluid mechanics. His Computational fluid dynamics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Square duct, Thermal, Pressure drop and Body orifice.

His most cited work include:

  • A parametric study of Trombe walls for passive cooling of buildings (231 citations)
  • Experimental measurement and numerical simulation of horizontal-coupled slinky ground source heat exchangers (122 citations)
  • A numerical study of solar chimney for natural ventilation of buildings with heat recovery (110 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Mechanics, Computational fluid dynamics, Airflow, Thermodynamics and Materials science are his primary areas of study. His Mechanics study combines topics in areas such as Duct, Heat exchanger and Simulation. Guohui Gan combines subjects such as Mechanical engineering, Thermal, Free cooling and Cooling tower with his study of Computational fluid dynamics.

Guohui Gan has included themes like CFD in buildings, Thermal comfort, Meteorology and Natural ventilation in his Airflow study. His Passive cooling study, which is part of a larger body of work in Meteorology, is frequently linked to Glazing, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work carried out in the field of Natural ventilation brings together such families of science as Heat pipe, Solar chimney and Buoyancy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (52.56%)
  • Computational fluid dynamics (32.05%)
  • Airflow (28.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Thermal (20.51%)
  • Phase-change material (6.41%)
  • Heat exchanger (19.23%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Guohui Gan mainly investigates Thermal, Phase-change material, Heat exchanger, Heat pump and Passive cooling. His work in Thermal is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Thermal comfort. Guohui Gan usually deals with Phase-change material and limits it to topics linked to Work and Airflow.

His work focuses on many connections between Heat exchanger and other disciplines, such as Soil science, that overlap with his field of interest in Heat transfer and Atmosphere. The study incorporates disciplines such as Plate heat exchanger, Plate fin heat exchanger, Run-around coil, Recuperator and Heat spreader in addition to Heat pump. To a larger extent, he studies Meteorology with the aim of understanding Passive cooling.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Critical review of latent heat storage systems for free cooling in buildings (74 citations)
  • Experimental study of the potential of eucalyptus fibres for evaporative cooling (21 citations)
  • Dynamic thermal performance of horizontal ground source heat pumps – The impact of coupled heat and moisture transfer (19 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Mechanical engineering
  • Thermodynamics
  • Electrical engineering

Guohui Gan mainly focuses on Intensity, Global warming, Range, Evaporative cooler and Eucalyptus. Guohui Gan has researched Intensity in several fields, including Energy consumption, Environmental engineering and Wind tunnel.
