چکیده
In this paper, a review of different techniques used to measure the slip length on superhydrophobic surfaces with large slip length is presented. First, we present the theoretical models used to calculate the effective slip length on superhydrophobic surfaces in different configurations of liquid flow. Then, we present the different techniques used to measure the slip past these superhydrophobic surfaces: rheometry, particle image velocimetry, pressure drop, surface force apparatus and atomic force microscopy.

Slippage of water past superhydrophobic carbon nanotube forests in microchannels.
We present in this Letter an experimental characterization of liquid flow slippage over superhydrophobic surfaces made of carbon nanotube forests, incorporated in microchannels. We make use of a particle image velocimetry technique to achieve the submicrometric resolution on the flow profile necessary for accurate measurement of the surface hydrodynamic properties. We demonstrate boundary slipp...
متن کاملFlow past superhydrophobic surfaces with cosine variation in local slip length.
Anisotropic superhydrophobic surfaces have the potential to greatly reduce drag and enhance mixing phenomena in microfluidic devices. Recent work has focused mostly on cases of superhydrophobic stripes. Here, we analyze a relevant situation of cosine variation of the local slip length. We derive approximate formulas for maximal (longitudinal) and minimal (transverse) directional effective slip ...
متن کاملImproving the natural convective heat transfer of a rectangular heatsink using superhydrophobic walls: A numerical approach
The effect of utilizing superhydrophobic walls on improving the convective heat transfer in a rectangular heatsink has been studied numerically in this paper. The vertical walls were kept at isothermal hot-and-cold temperatures and horizontal walls were insulated. The boundary condition on the walls was: no-slip for regular, and slip (with slip length of 500 µm) for superhydrophobic walls. By c...
متن کاملEffective slip over superhydrophobic surfaces in thin channels.
Superhydrophobic surfaces reduce drag by combining hydrophobicity and roughness to trap gas bubbles in a microscopic texture. Recent work has focused on specific cases, such as arrays of pillars or grooves, with limited theoretical guidance. Here, we consider the experimentally relevant limit of thin channels and obtain rigorous bounds on the effective slip length for any two-component (e.g., l...
متن کاملInfluence of surface hierarchy of superhydrophobic surfaces on liquid slip.
We investigated how the surface hierarchy of superhydrophobic (SHPo) surfaces influences liquid slip by testing well-defined microposts that have nanoposts only on their top. Contrary to the commonly held belief, our results show that such hierarchical surfaces do not always lead to an increase of slip length despite their reduced solid fraction and enhanced hydrophobicity compared to single-sc...
