- The role of surface wettability in pool boiling is a critical issue for microdevices, such as micro-evaporators for electronic cooling. This paper is significant as it presents for the first time the influence of extreme values of surface wettability (e.g. superhydrophobic surfaces) on the onset boiling temperature. The research adds support for the “quasi-Leidenfrost” regime recently reported in the literature, and directly underpinned a successful Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship grant proposal (Magaletti).
