Boiling Heat Transfer and Condensation on Surfaces with Extreme Wettabilities

Abstract

This project has so far lead to 14 publications in high impact journals, as well as, widespread domestic and international popular press coverage. Many of these publications involved multiple collaborators from AFRL. One patent disclosure, that included collaborators from AFRL, was also filed. This patent has already been licensed out from the University of Michigan and is being commercialized. Results from this work have also been presented over 25 different invited talks. The project involved five undergraduate students, two graduate students and a postdoctoral research associate. Two of the major achievements from this project, development of some of the first ever self-healing durable superhydrophobic surfaces, and some of the first ever durable omniphobic surfaces, are discussed in detail within this report. A list of all 14 manuscripts published based on this work is provided in the end. 5 more publications based on this work are either submitted or in preparation.
