Cheuk Lun CHOW

• Associate Professor, Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering, City University of Hong Kong

Prof. Cheuk Lun Chow is currently an Associate Professor at City University of Hong Kong. She holds a PhD in Architecture from the University of Cambridge, where her research focused on the fire hazards of glass buildings and double-skin façades. Prior to that, she earned both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Building Services Engineering from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Prof. Chow has published more than 100 refereed journal and conference articles in the field of fire engineering. She also successfully attracted more than HK$15M research fund as Principal Investigator/ Project Coordinator from HKSAR government in her career life.

Her primary research interests lie in the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate fires, with emphasis on natural ventilation, façade fires, smoke toxicity, and fire safety in green and sustainable buildings. Her work offers essential insights into the dynamic behavior of fire and smoke in modern architecture and high-rise buildings.

Her expertise provides a strong foundation for advancing new methods in fire risk assessment. This presentation builds upon her work by exploring how AI technologies can further enhance fire safety in supertall buildings.
