Transport phenomena involving condensate liquids generated from the phase change heat transfer in microchannels and in engineered superhydrophobic surfaces require consideration of slip effects. In this study, the laminar film condensation over upward facing flat slabs and circular disks of finite sizes with free edges in the presence of wall slip effects is investigated. By considering the Navier slip model and extending the classical Nusselt analysis, the mass, momentum, and energy of the liquid film in two-dimensional and axisymmetric coordinates are solved for the film thickness and the heat transfer rate in non-dimensional form. Numerical solution yields the local structure of the condensate film profile and the Nusselt number for different values of the slip coefficient. Investigation of the results reveals that the condensate film on horizontal surfaces becomes thinner and the overall heat transfer rate is enhanced with an increase in the slip coefficient. In particular, a regression analysis of the results indicates a power law dependence of the Nusselt number on the non-dimensional slip coefficient with an exponent close to 0.5. Significant enhancement in phase change heat transfer follow from the modification of the local velocity profiles within the condensate film, especially in resulting from the additional momentum gain near the wall surfaces due to increases in slip effects.

Superhydrophobic surfaces reduce drag by combining hydrophobicity and roughness to trap gas bubbles in a micro- and nanoscopic texture. Recent work has focused on specific cases, such as striped grooves or arrays of pillars, with limited theoretical guidance. Here, we consider the experimentally relevant limit of thin channels and obtain rigorous bounds on the effective slip length for any two-component (e.g. low-slip and high-slip) texture with given area fractions. Among all anisotropic textures, parallel stripes attain the largest (or smallest) possible slip in a straight, thin channel for parallel (or perpendicular) orientation with respect to the mean flow. For isotropic (e.g. chessboard or random) textures, the Hashin-Strikman conditions further constrain the effective slip. These results provide a framework for the rational design of superhydrophobic surfaces.
We study the dynamic wetting of a self-propelled viscous droplet using the time-dependent lubrication equation on a conical-shaped substrate for different cone radii, cone angles and slip lengths. The droplet velocity is found to increase with the co ne angle and the slip length, but decrease with the cone radius. We show that a film is formed at the receding part of the droplet, much like the classical Landau-Levich-Derjaguin (LLD) film. The film thickness $h_f$ is found to decrease with the slip length $lambda$. By using the approach of matching asymptotic profiles in the film region and the quasi-static droplet, we obtain the same film thickness as the results from the lubrication approach for all slip lengths. We identify two scaling laws for the asymptotic regimes: $h_fh_o sim Ca^{2/3}$ for $lambdall h_f$ and $h_f h^{3}_osim (Ca/lambda)^2$ for $lambdagg h_f$, here $1/h_o$ is a characteristic length at the receding contact line and $Ca$ is the capillary number. We compare the position and the shape of the droplet predicted from our continuum theory with molecular dynamics simulations, which are in close agreement. Our results show that manipulating the droplet size, the cone angle and the slip length provides different schemes for guiding droplet motion and coating the substrate with a film.

Superhydrophobic surfaces demonstrate promising potential for skin friction reduction in naval and hydrodynamic applications. Recent developments of superhydrophobic surfaces aiming for scalable applications use random distribution of roughness, such as spray coating and etched process. However, most of previous analyses of the interaction between flows and superhydrophobic surfaces studied periodic geometries that are economically feasible only in lab-scale experiments. We conduct direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows over randomly patterned interfaces considering a range of texture widths $w^+approx 4-26$, and solid fractions $phi_s=11%$ to $25%$. Slip and no-slip boundary conditions are implemented in a pattern, modeling the presence of gas-liquid interfaces and solid elements. Our results indicate that slip of randomly distributed textures under turbulent flows are about $30%$ less than those of surfaces with aligned features of the same size. In the small texture size limit $w^+approx 4$, the slip length of the randomly distributed textures in turbulent flows is well described by a previously introduced Stokes flow solution of randomly distributed shear-free holes. By comparing DNS results for patterned slip and no-slip boundary against the corresponding homogenized slip length boundary conditions, we show that turbulent flows over randomly distributed posts can be represented by an isotropic slip length in streamwise and spanwise direction. The average pressure fluctuation on gas pocket is similar to that of the aligned features with the same texture size and gas fraction, but the maximum interface deformation at the leading edge of the roughness element is about twice larger when the textures are randomly distributed.
Direct Numerical Simulations are used to solve turbulent flow and heat transfer over a variety of rough walls in a channel. The wall geometries are exactly resolved in the simulations. The aim is to understand the effect of roughness morphology and i ts scaling on the augmentation of heat transfer relative to that of skin friction. A number of realistic rough surface maps obtained from the scanning of gas turbine blades and internal combustion engines as well as several artificially generated rough surfaces are examined. In the first part of the paper, effects of statistical surface properties, namely surface slope and roughness density, at constant roughness height are systematically investigated, and it is shown that Reynolds analogy factor (two times Stanton number divided by skin friction coefficient) varies meaningfully but moderately with the surface parameters except for the case with extremely low slope or density where the Reynolds analogy factor grows significantly and tends to that of a smooth wall. In the second part of the paper, the roughness height is varied (independently in both inner and outer units) while the geometrical similarity is maintained. Considering all the simulated cases, it is concluded that Reynolds analogy factor correlates fairly well with the equivalent sand roughness scaled in inner units and asymptotically tends to a plateau.
We study hydrodynamics, heat transfer and entropy generation in pressure-driven microchannel flow of a power-law fluid. Specifically, we address the effect of asymmetry in the slip boundary condition at the channel walls. Constant, uniform but unequa l heat fluxes are imposed at the walls in this thermally developed flow. The effect of asymmetric slip on the velocity profile, on the wall shear stress, on the temperature distribution, on the Bejan number profiles, and on the average entropy generation and the Nusselt number are established through the numerical evaluation of exact analytical expressions derived. Specifically, due to asymmetric slip, the fluid momentum flux and thermal energy flux are enhanced along the wall with larger slip, which in turn shifts the location of the velocitys maximum to an off-center location closer to the said wall. Asymmetric slip is also shown to redistribute the peaks and plateaus of the Bejan number profile across the microchannel, showing a sharp transition between entropy generation due to heat transfer and due to fluid flow at an off-center-line location. In the presence of asymmetric slip, the difference in the imposed heat fluxes leads to starkly different Bejan number profiles depending on which wall is hotter, and whether the fluid is shear-thinning or shear-thickening. Overall, slip is shown to promote uniformity in both the velocity field and the temperature field, thereby reducing irreversibility in this flow.
