Thin Film Condensation on Nanostructured Surfaces
Abstract
Water vapor condensation is a ubiquitous process in nature and industry. Over the past century, methods achieving dropwise condensation using a thin (−2 while avoiding durability issues by significantly reducing nucleation on the hydrophobic surface. The work presented here develops an approach to potentially ensure durable and high‐performance condensation comparable to dropwise condensation.
