Biography (up to 500 words): Prof Jun Peng is currently the Chair Professor of Sustainable Energy Engineering in the University of Lincoln, UK. He is a member of the University’s Green Energy and Net Zero Steering Committee, Deputy Director in Research of School of Engineering, Head of Thermofluids Research Lab. Prof Peng obtained his PhD degree in mechanical engineering (thermodynamics/IC engine combustion) in 1996 from the National Engine Combustion Lab (China). He moved to Brunel University in 1998 as research fellow for five years.  After obtained two years industrial experience at Ford Motor Company (Product Development Europe) as a senior development engineer since 2003, he started working as a lecturer in mechanical engineering in University of Sussex since 2004 and was promoted to senior lecturer (associate professor) in 2007. He was appointed as Professor in Engineering in Faculty of Creative Arts, Technologies and Science, University of Bedfordshire in June 2017. Prof Peng’s research interest lies in flow dynamics and combustion with application on combustion engines, gas turbines, fuel cells and other sustainable power systems. Prof Peng is a fellow of IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers) and committee members of Academic Assessment Committee, and an invited international fellow of JSPS (Japan Society for the Promotion of Science).  He is currently an associate editor of Electronics Letters (SCI Journal) and Editorial Board member of Johnson Matthey Technology Review (SCI Journal).

Research Interest:

Experimental investigation (including various laser diagnostics) and numerical simulation (including LES, DNS, etc.) on fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, combustion with application on flows and combustion of non-carbon fuels and other renewable fuels in combustion engines, fuel cells and other sustainable energy technologies (including exhaust energy recovery, solar energy, etc.)
