Education and Appointments:

  • Prof. Tian got his PhD at University of Science and Technology in 2008. Then he did postdoc at CNRS in France (2008-2010) and worked in Bielefeld University as an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow and group leader (2010-2013). From August 2013 until now, he works at Institute of Engineering Thermophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences as a full professor. From 2015, he also works at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Research Direction:

  1. Combustion chemistry of aviation fuels, nitrogen-containing fuels and its components; 
  2. Micorgravity combustion; 
  3. Catalytic combustion and abatement of volatile organic compounds. 

Projects: About 30 projects, including MOST, NSFC, MIIT and CAS are or have been performed. 

Up to April, 2021, more than 110 SCI-indexed papers (CNF/PCI > 35) have been published with about 2300 citations. H-index is 25. Two book chapters have been published. Moreover, 15 patents have been applied, in which 5 were authorized.
