Superhydrophobic Coatings for Boiling Heat Transfer Applications
Superhydrophobic (SHB) surfaces are those where the apparent contact angle of water on the surface in the air is greater than 150°. The recent technological advancements in micro and nanofabrication methods have created novel surfaces like SHB coatings. SHB surface plays a vital role in boiling‐related heat transfer applications like electronic cooling, metallurgy, thermal management of data centers, power electronics, and food processing. Here, we emphasize both governing principles and application knowledge of SHB surface in pool boiling heat transfer. The present chapter explains the various preparation methods and characterization of SHB and their effect on pool boiling characteristics like critical heat flux, heat transfer coefficient, boiling incipience, and bubble dynamics. We detail the physical principles behind the dynamic behavior of bubbles on SHB patterns to deepen the understanding of bubble dynamics. Finally, this chapter discusses the prospects of the start‐of‐the‐art SHB surfaces in thermal management and various industrial applications.
