Boiling heat transfer on superhydrophilic, superhydrophobic, and superbiphilic surfaces (2012, methodology): “Few biphilic surfaces have been fabricated [25, 28, 36], but they all have been shown to significantly enhance boiling heat transfer.”
Hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials and their applications (2018, background): “Hydrophobic surfaces contained water after the frost melting but there was no water retention seen on the SHO surface (Ding et al. 2006; Hsieh and Lin 2009; Jo et al. 2011).”
Lattice Boltzmann modeling of boiling heat transfer: The boiling curve and the effects of wettability (2015, background): “hat the required wall superheat for the onset of boiling will decrease when the contact angle increases. In other words, the onset of boiling occurs earlier on the surfaces with larger contact angles [60], which is also confirmed in our simulations: boiling appears at T 0.01 when Gw 0.105 (contact a”
