Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The physical binary interactions between liquids and solid surfaces that combine micro- and nano-features and different wettability during condensation phase-change is further investigated here. The surface structure and its intrinsic wettability underneath condensing droplets are found to play a crucial role during the dynamics of condensation and on the heat transfer performance. We elucidated: 1. On a patterned wettability microstructured surface the droplet migration from the hydrophobic side of a micropillar to its hydrophilic top was demonstrated. 2. A simultaneous dropwise and filmwise condensation on a completely hydrophilic microstructured surface is reported for the first time. 3. The suppression of the droplet-jumping performance of micrometer droplets is induced in the presence of microstructures. 4. Fog harvesting performance is enhanced by the inclusion of the unique micro- and nano-structures of the Gladiolus Dalenii biological sample.
