A Water Droplet Pinning and Heat Transfer Characteristics on an Inclined Hydrophobic Surface

Abstract: A water droplet pinning on inclined hydrophobic surface is considered and the droplet heat transfer characteristics are examined. Solution crystallization of polycarbonate is carried out to create hydrophobic characteristics on the surface. The pinning state of the water droplet on the extreme inclined hydrophobic surface (0° ≤ δ ≤ 180°, δ being the inclination angle) is assessed. Heat transfer from inclined hydrophobic surface to droplet is simulated for various droplet volumes and inclination angles in line … Show more

“…In case B the stripe between 2 mm and 3 mm has a control value which is slightly lower than the equilibrium value obtained again in the stripe [1,2]mm. This results in a more rapid receding of the droplet on that stripe in case B.…”

“…If the gravitational force exceeds the maximum retention force, the droplet will slide. However, in the present study, a partial depinning [28][29][30] of the droplet occurs in majority of the cases, where the rear edge of the TL is sliding and the front edge remains pinned throughout the evaporation process.…”
