About Zhiqiang
I help clients solve complex heat transfer and fluid flow problems using physics-based modeling and simulation.
I am a Thermal & Fluid Engineer with 7+ years of experience in CFD, multiphysics simulation, and transport phenomena. I specialize in COMSOL Multiphysics for coupled problems such as heat transfer, multiphase flow, and porous media transport.
My experience includes building CFD models, developing electro-thermal simulations, and validating results with experiments (IR thermography, high-speed imaging, and data analysis). I have supported real engineering projects, improving temperature prediction accuracy by 15% and contributing to over 40 design iterations.
I can help you with:
- COMSOL modeling (heat transfer, multiphysics, porous media)
- CFD simulation and flow analysis
- Thermal system design and optimization
- Multiphase flow and transport problems
- Model validation and result interpretation
I focus on delivering clear, reliable results that can support real engineering decisions.
