Abstract

We investigate the hydrodynamic friction properties of superhydrophobic surfaces and quantify their superlubricating potential. On such surfaces, the contact of the liquid with the solid roughness is minimal, while most of the interface is a liquid-gas one, resulting in strongly reduced friction. We obtain scaling laws for the effective slip length at the surface in terms of the generic surface characteristics (roughness length scale, depth, solid fraction of the interface, etc.). These predictions are successfully compared to numerical results in various geometries (grooves, posts or holes). This approach provides a versatile framework for the description of slip on these composite surfaces. Slip lengths up to 100μm are predicted for an optimized patterned surface.

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.
