Slip on Superhydrophobic Surfaces

Rothstein, Jonathan P.·2010·Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics

Abstract

This review discusses the use of the combination of surface roughness and hydrophobicity for engineering large slip at the fluid-solid interface. These superhydrophobic surfaces were initially inspired by the unique water-repellent properties of the lotus leaf and can be employed to produce drag reduction in both laminar and turbulent flows, enhance mixing in laminar flows, and amplify diffusion-osmotic flows. We review the current state of experiments, simulations, and theory of flow past superhydrophobic surfaces. In addition, the designs and limitations of these surfaces are discussed, with an eye toward implementing these surfaces in a wide range of applications.

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.
