Liquid-Vapor Phase-Change Heat Transfer on Functionalized Nanowired Surfaces and Beyond

TL;DR: An overview of liquid-vapor phase-change heat transfer enhancement on functionalized nanowired surfaces, as well as other promising strategies and surfaces can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dropwise condensation on solid hydrophilic surfaces.

TL;DR: Stable dropwise condensation is demonstrated on a smooth, solid, hydrophilic surface having low contact angle hysteresis and the distribution of nano- to micro- to macroscale droplet sizes agrees well with the classical distribution on hydrophobic surfaces.

Water harvesting method via a hybrid superwettable coating with superhydrophobic and superhydrophilic nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, a new biomimetic method, inspired by the fog harvesting ability of hydrophobic-hydrophilic surfaces of Namib desert beetles, is presented, which envisages a low-cost preparation (by the photocatalysis of titanium dioxide through ultraviolet irradiation) of a titanium dioxide-silicon dioxide hybrid superwettable surface combining superhydrophobic and super hydrophilic nanoparticles and exhibiting excellent water/fog collection properties.
