Yuehong Su

Dr Yuehong Su is a Professor of Thermal Science and Building Technology at the Department of Architecture & Built Environment, Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham. Since he started his PhD study in engineering thermophysics at the University of Science and Technology of China, he has had over 30 years research experience in heat pump, air conditioning, energy efficiency, heat storage, solar concentration, photovoltaic/thermal, daylighting and low carbon buildings. He has worked on many projects funded by the EPSRC, EU, Innovate UK, NSFC and industry and has published a number of research papers in refereed journals. His research in daylighting was originated from a collaboration with a leading UK daylighting system manufacturer and has led to some innovative design concepts, particularly on the combination of daylighting with PV-thermal technology and simultaneous collection of solar energy and sky radiative cooling. He teaches Engineering Thermodynamics, Air Conditioning Technology, Daylighting and Solar Architecture Modelling, and he is the Course Director for MSc Sustainable Energy and Entrepreneurship.
