Droplet mobility and impacting dynamics on superhydrophobic surfaces
Zhang, Wenjing (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:347, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Droplet wetting phenomenon is crucial in various applications, such as antiicing and self-cleaning surfaces, heat transfer, water harvesting, and so on. The desired wettability can be achieved by a combination of physical ... -
Enabling phase transition of infused lubricant in porous structure for exceptional oil/water separation
Wang, Feng; Luo, Sihai; Xiao, Senbo; Zhang, Wenjing; Zhuo, Yizhi; He, Jianying; Zhang, Zhiliang (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The fundamental mechanism behind oil/water separation materials is their surface wettability that allows either oil or water to pass through. The conventional materials for oil/water separation generally have extreme ... -
Relaxation phase during droplet impact on superhydrophobic surfaces with high contact angle hysteresis
Zhang, Wenjing; Dorao, Carlos Alberto; Fernandino, Maria (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The droplet impact process on a solid surface is divided into a spreading phase where the droplet reaches the maximum deformation followed by a retracting phase. However, in the case of surfaces with high contact angle ... -
Water-repellent surfaces consisting of nanowires on micro-pyramidal structures
Zhang, Wenjing; Ding, Wenwu; Fernandino, Maria; Dorao, Carlos Alberto (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Super-repellent surfaces are relevant for several practical applications, such as water collection and self-cleaning and anti-icing surfaces. However, designing surfaces that can maintain their super-repellency when the ... -
