We hope you can join us for this special free workshop "Energy Efficient Dehumidification for the Built Environment" hosted by Dr. Yunho Hwang from the University of Maryland and Dr. Menghao Qin from The Technical University of Denmark.
Dr. Menghao Qin is a Professor of Building Physics and Materials at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). He received his Ph.D. in Built Environment at the National Laboratory of Engineering Sciences for the Environment at ULR, France in cooperation with Lund University, Sweden in 2007. He is currently the co-leader of the Building Physics Group at DTU. Prof. Qin's current research topics include smart materials for built environment control (e.g., PCM, MOFs, polymer hydrogel, etc.); hygrothermal performance of buildings; indoor environmental quality (IEQ); and energy-efficient building design.
Dr. Yunho Hwang is a research professor and co-director of the Center for Environmental Energy Engineering (CEEE). He is a world-recognized expert for energy efficiency and new innovative energy systems research in the field of refrigeration and air-conditioning (RAC). In addition to developing energy-efficient technologies such as two-stage CO2
split cycle, saturation cycle, and hybrid separate sensible and latent cooling technology, he has initiated new innovative research on "Not-in-kind" Refrigeration Systems beyond sorption technologies such as elastocaloric cooling systems and electrochemical compression for natural refrigerants.
