Bichen Shang works on heat transfer and thermal management, focusing on phase change materials (substances that absorb or release heat as they melt or freeze) and nanofluids for applications like battery cooling, thermal energy storage, and building energy efficiency. Recent work combines computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with machine learning methods to predict and optimize thermal performance in these systems.
