Research summary
AI-generated

Zheng Chen studies combustion science, focusing on how flames behave, ignite, and propagate under different conditions such as lean hydrogen/air mixtures, microgravity, and detonation-driven systems. The work combines experiments, numerical simulation, and machine-learning methods to model chemical reactions and turbulent burning, with related studies on engine and energy technologies. Some listed publications also touch on adjacent topics like reservoir engineering and photonics.
