The Laboratory of Advances in Energy Transport (e-Lab) at EPFL focuses on obtaining deeper understandings of interfacial transport physics to create high-performance, low-carbon-footprint solutions for cooling, power generation, and clean water production. Research areas include phase change physics and liquid-gas interface manipulation, with projects such as Insulated Cooling with Evaporation and Radiation (ICER) and Passive Subambient Cooling with Evaporation-Insulation Bilayer. Led by Principal Investigator Zhengmao Lu, the lab aims to optimize interfacial transport to develop sustainable energy and water technologies.
