DOI: 10.1016/j.ijheatmasstransfer.2020.120810
Abstract: Abstract Structured non-wetting surfaces provide alternating no-slip and partial slip boundary conditions to the fluid flow which, in turn, affects the convective heat transfer performance over the surfaces. In this paper, an analytical model is… read more here.
