This is a collection of reasonably self-contained review articles
on various features of wetting phenomena from both experimental and
theoretical points of view. The experimental papers are concerned
with wetting at nanoscopic scales, magnetic wetting transitions,
convection at interfaces, and adsorption on a surface. The
theoretical part is constituted by recent exact results at d=3,
some reviews on wetting and disorder, a mathematical description of
wetting, front propagation, random surfaces, and wetting within
Potts models. The book addresses researchers, engineers, and
graduate students in chemistry, physics, and applied mathematics.
The Surface Wettability Effect on Phase Change collects high level
contributions from internationally recognised scientists in the
field. It thoroughly explores surface wettability, with topics
spanning from the physics of phase change, physics of nucleation,
mesoscale modeling, analysis of phenomena such drop evaporation,
boiling, local heat flux at triple line, Leidenfrost, dropwise
condensation, heat transfer enhancement, freezing, icing. All the
topics are treated by discussing experimental results, mathematical
modeling and numerical simulations. In particular, the numerical
methods look at direct numerical simulations in the framework of
VOF simulations, phase-field simulations and molecular dynamics. An
introduction to equilibrium and non-equilibrium thermodynamics of
phase change, wetting phenomena, liquid interfaces, numerical
simulation of wetting phenomena and phase change is offered for
readers who are less familiar in the field. This book will be of
interest to researchers, academics, engineers, and postgraduate
students working in the area of thermofluids, thermal management,
and surface technology.
