Abstract: We semianalytically capture the effects of evaporation and condensation at menisci on apparent thermal slip lengths for liquids suspended in the Cassie state on ridgetype structured surfaces using a conformal map and ...

Abstract: We analytically consider the effect of meniscus curvature on heat transfer to laminar flow across structured surfaces. The surfaces considered are composed of ridges. Curvature of the menisci, which separates liquid in the ...
