Brief Biography:

Dr. Hee-Koo Moon is currently a professor at Yonsei University (Seoul, South Korea), responsible for teaching gas turbine related courses, mentoring graduate students, conducting researches, and cooperating with industry.  Before joining the university, he was head of the Heat Transfer & Internal Air Systems Group at Solar Turbines Incorporated (USA), a solely owned subsidiary of Caterpillar Company.  He was managing/leading heat transfer engineers responsible for preliminary and detailed heat transfer designs, analysis and experimental/test validation of entire engine thermal management systems and secondary flow circuits, which include combustor thermal design/analysis, turbine airfoil/disk cooling systems, transient tip clearance and transient thermal displacement analyses.  He was also responsible for defining the heat transfer/cooling technology strategy and processes, and for directing advanced heat transfer technology programs at both in-house (company heat transfer laboratory) and universities.

He has co-authored over 140 papers in international journals and conferences (refereed). He is a fellow of ASME and active in the Heat Transfer Committee of the International Gas Turbine Institute. He is a co-inventor of 5 patents and 5 more in pending.
