We demonstrate that smooth and flat surfaces combining hydrophilic and hydrophobic patterns improve pool boiling performance. Compared to a hydrophilic surface with 7 degree wetting angle, the measured critical heat flux and heat transfer…
We study the role of surface topology, surface chemistry, and wall superheat temperature on the onset of boiling, bubble nucleation and growth, and the possible formation of an insulating vapour film by means of large-scale MD simulations.…
This paper reports the dynamic wetting behavior and heat transfer characteristics for impinging droplets on heated bi-phobic surfaces (superhydrophobic matrix with hydrophobic spots). A non-patterned superhydrophobic and a sticky…
In this opinion piece, we discuss recent advances in experimental methods for characterizing phase change heat transfer. We begin with a survey of techniques for high-resolution measurements of temperature and heat flux at the solid surface…
Pool boiling is one of the efficient ways to remove heat from high-power electronics, heat exchangers, and nuclear reactors. Nowadays, the pool boiling method is tried to exercise frequently due to its ability to remove high heat flux…
Experiments were performed to study the effects of surface wettability on flow boiling of water at atmospheric pressure. The test channel is a single rectangular channel 0.5 mm high, 5 mm wide and 180 mm long. The mass flux was set at 100…
Surface modification results in substantial improvement in pool boiling heat transfer. Thin film-coated and porous-coated substrates, through different materials and techniques, significantly boost heat transfer through increased nucleation…
Clarifying the factors that control the contact angle of a liquid on a solid substrate is a long-standing scientific problem pertinent across physics, chemistry and materials science. Progress has been hampered by the lack of a…
The field trap effect on the microcavity surface under the action of an electric field is not conducive to boiling heat transfer. This numerical study found that using conducting-insulating microcavity surfaces in an electric field removes…
A hybrid thermal lattice Boltzmann (LB) model is presented to simulate thermal multiphase flows with phase change based on an improved pseudopotential LB approach [Q. Li, K. H. Luo, and X. J. Li, Phys. Rev. E 87, 053301 (2013)]. The present…
The Leidenfrost phenomenon entails the levitation of a liquid droplet over a superheated surface, cushioned by its vapor layer. For water, superhydrophobic surfaces are believed to suppress the Leidenfrost point ($\it{T}$$_{\rm L}$)-the…

In recent years, the lattice Boltzmann (LB) method has been widely employed to simulate boiling phenomena [A. M\'arkus and G. H\'azi, Phys. Rev. E 83, 046705 (2011); Biferale et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 104502 (2012); Li et al., Phys.…
Bubble growth, departure and sliding in low-pressure flow boiling has received considerable attention in the past. However, most applications of boiling heat transfer rely on high-pressure flow boiling, for which very little is known, as…
The characterization of the wetting on superhydrophobic surfaces is rather complex. Usual contact angle experiments are difficult to perform and the lateral movement of droplets as well as the pinning at point defects on the surface can…
