Thank you for stopping by! I am Junyoung Kim, an Assistant Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Kumoh National Institute of Technology (KIT). Before joining KIT, I was a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Advanced Buildings Equipment Research Group of National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). I received my PhD Degree at Purdue, where I worked with Prof. James E. Braun and Prof. Davide Ziviani at Ray W. Herrick Laboratories in Mechanical Engineering. Before my PhD, I worked at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) in Korea.

I am interested in diverse engineering problems of thermodynamic systems, including cooling and heating systems, energy and building technologies, and energy conversion devices.  I like to use both experimental and computational methods to design and analysis of thermal systems.
