Abstract:The efficient removal of droplets on solid surfaces holds significant importance in the field of fog collection, condensation heat transfer, and so on. However, on current typical surfaces, droplets are characterized by a passive and single removal mode, contingent on the traction force (e.g., capillary force, Laplace pressure, etc.) generated by the surface's physics and chemistry design, posing challenges for enhancing the efficiency of droplet removal. In this paper, an effective active strategy based on di… Show more
