Abstract: Droplet impact on rigid, superhydrophobic surfaces follows the well-known spreading, recoil, and lift-off behavior at lower impact speeds (a), and splashing at higher impact speeds (b). The contact time tc of these bouncing ...

Abstract: We use pump–probe thermal transport measurements and high speed imaging to study the residence time and heat transfer of small (360 خ¼m diameter) water droplets that bounce from hydrophobic surfaces whose temperature ...

Abstract: The recent growth in electronics power density has created a significant need for effective thermal management solutions. Liquid-cooled heat sinks or cold plates are typically used to achieve high volumetric power density ...

Abstract: An analytical model, validated by experiments and finite element simulations, is developed to study the thermal imaging of singlewalled carbon nanotube (SWNT) devices by scanning Joule expansion microscopy (SJEM). A simple ...
