As the contact angle increased, the time required for droplets to solidify increased, thus delaying the formation of the frost layer.
“Huang [56] investigated the frostsuppression characteristics of surfaces with contact angles ranging from 76 ◦ to 154.9 ◦ . They reported that as the contact angle increased, the time required for the droplets to solidify increased, thus consequently delaying the formation of the frost layer.”

“[2] observed that the transition from water vapor to frost follows five independent stages: droplet condensation, droplet growth with coalescence of supercooled droplets, droplet freezing, formation of frost crystals on the frozen droplets, and crystal growth with simultaneous collapsing.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
