Abstract
This study involves the fabrication and characterization of original, hydrophobic, superhydrophilic, superhydrophobic and hybrid biphilic pattern coupled with the flat and pillar-structured surfaces. The boiling performance of the seven wettability structured surfaces is experimentally and numerically investigated, aiming at analyzing the boiling mechanism of wetting pattern coupled with structures. The findings indicate that coupling superhydrophobicity pillar structure surface (SHO-PS) result in an excellent boiling performance, the superhydrophilicity have difficulty in improving the heat transfer coefficient and critical heat flux. Analysis of the bubble dynamics behaviors reveals a strong positive correlation between the bubble nucleation sites and bubble departure diameter, except for hydrophobic flat structured surface (HO-FS) and superhydrophobicity pillar structured surface (SHO-PS), which exhibit the negative correlation. The bubble departure frequency shows a linear correlation with the contact angle of all the modified surfaces. In the simulation, it is observed that the similar bubble dynamic behaviors in experiment.
