Research
Research Interests
Dr. Chen and his research team conduct research on high-performance buildings, such as net-zero energy (ready), focusing on performance modelling, modular design and prefabrication, utilization of renewable energy, and integrated intelligent design and operation.
Research Projects in Progress
- Modelling, design and operation of building-integrated thermal energy storage;
- Intelligent design and construction of masonry buildings;
- Advanced thermal modelling and calculation of effective thermal resistance;
- Design and data-driven modelling of hybrid heating systems;
- Energy-efficient community greenhouses for cold-climate regions;
- Adaptive system identification for predictive control;
- Integrated design and operation for room thermal conditioning, daylighting, and electric lighting.
