Research summary
AI-generated

Weixiao Shang's research focuses on experimental fluid dynamics, particularly how liquids break apart into droplets and sprays, and how fluids flow around surfaces and heat exchangers. This work uses techniques like particle image velocimetry (a method for visualizing fluid motion) and interferometry (using light wave patterns to measure thin liquid layers) to study topics such as jet impingement, droplet impact, and industrial spray systems relevant to combustion, manufacturing, and metal processing.
