Resistant energy analysis of self-pulling process during dropwise condensation on superhydrophobic surfaces (open access)

Resistant energy analysis of self-pulling process during dropwise condensation on superhydrophobic surfaces

Article describes an energy-based analysis on the formation and growth of condensate droplets on two-tier superhydrophobic surfaces, which are fabricated by decorating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) onto microscale fluorinated pillars.
