Dr Zhengtong Xie is Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) within Engineering and the Environment at the University of Southampton.
Research Interest
Large-Eddy Simulation for flow, scalar dispersion and heat transfer over a group of bluff bodies. Modelling interaction of fluid and slender structures, e.g. long-span bridges, high-rise buildings, large wind-turbine blades Coupling between large-scale geophysical flow and small scale turbulent flow, e.g. weather scale flows and street scale flows. New approaches (e.g. inflow boundary conditions, near-wall treatment) for Large-Eddy Simulations; hybrid LES. Thermal stability of urban boundary layer and its structure. Wind turbine flows.
