Condensation-induced jumping water drops.
Water droplets can jump during vapor condensation on solid benzene near its melting point. This phenomenon, which can be viewed as a kind of micro scale steam engine, is studied experimentally and numerically. The latent heat of condensation transferred at the drop three phase contact line melts the substrate during a time proportional to R (the drop radius). The wetting conditions change and a...
متن کاملCold-induced spreading of water drops on hydrophobic surfaces.
Superhydrophobic surfaces are characterized by their peculiarities, such as water-repellent, anti-icing, and freezing-delay properties. Wetting dynamics of deposited water drops on cooling hydrophobic surfaces, which directly affects the aforementioned properties, has not been studied thoroughly. Here, water drops are cooled on different hydrophobic surfaces in a controlled environment. During ...
متن کاملWater Drops on Surfaces
Water motion is a highly complex phenomenon. From ocean waves to raindrops, water is described by a wide range of shapes and is affected by a wide range of forces. This paper presents a physically-based method of modeling the latter phenomenon raindrops. This model can handle bodies of water with varying underlying terrain, as well as many different fluids, but cannot represent spray systems, w...
متن کاملPhotoinduced pH drops in water.
A 2-hydroxyazobenzene platform has been evaluated to photorelease protons in aqueous solutions. Three different systems relying on molecular, supramolecular and polymeric strategies have been investigated in order to tune the water solubility and the thermodynamic and kinetic properties. This paper first reports on the syntheses and the physico chemical analyses for each system. Subsequently, w...
متن کاملJumping-droplet-enhanced condensation on scalable superhydrophobic nanostructured surfaces.
When droplets coalesce on a superhydrophobic nanostructured surface, the resulting droplet can jump from the surface due to the release of excess surface energy. If designed properly, these superhydrophobic nanostructured surfaces can not only allow for easy droplet removal at micrometric length scales during condensation but also promise to enhance heat transfer performance. However, the ratio...
