Ning Yang is a Professor at the Institute of Process Engineering of Chinese Academy of Sciences. His earlier work is about the multiscale simulation of gas-solid two-phase flow in fluidization, devoted to develop the EMMS drag model (Energy-Minimization Multi-scale) to improve the multiphase CFD simulation of circulating fluidized beds. His current work is about the CFD modeling of gas-liquid and gas-liquid-solid systems. He developed a EMMS method with consideration of meso-scale structures and energy dissipation in gas-liquid systems, and then successfully integrated the method into CFD simulation. He is also the leading scientist in many projects on industrial application of CFD simulation, e.g., incorporating with BASF, BHPB, BP, SinoPec, Synfuel China, TOTAL, and Unilever. He obtained the Outstanding (2019) and Excellent (2012) Young Scientist Fund from National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), and receives the Newton Advanced Fellowship of Royal Society. He is a member of the Scientific Advisory Committee of International Symposium of Chemical Reaction Engineering(ISCRE), and International Conference on Gas-liquid and Gas-liquid-Solid Reactor Systems (GLS).
