Mechanical Engineering


Welcome to HTL website!

We are interested in understanding two-phase flow and heat transfer mechanisms for the safe and reliable design of high-performance thermal devices. Our research interests include boiling and condensation, high-heat-flux heat transfer, novel heat exchanger system, thermal management, electronics cooling, active flow control, and computational fluid dynamics.
We are looking for highly motivated postdoctoral scholars, graduate students (M.S., M.S./Ph.D. Combined, Ph.D.) and undergraduate students. If you are interested in studying in the heat transfer lab, please feel free to contact Prof. Sung-Min Kim.


Postdoctoral Positions Available

Several postdoctoral positions are available immediately in the heat transfer lab, focused on (1) waviness in two-phase flow, (2) high-heat-flux heat transfer, (3) novel heat exchanger system, and (4) electronics cooling. Experience in two-phase flow, flow boiling, phase change heat transfer, micro-channel heat transfer, and computational heat transfer would be an advantage but is not required.

Applicants must hold a Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field. The positions will remain open until filled. Interested candidates should submit a research statement and curriculum vitae, including the names and contact information of three references, to: smkim@skku.edu.
