Article Synopsis
- Droplet evaporation on rough substrates is critical for applications like cooling and micro/nanoparticle assembly, but understanding this process solely through macroscopic studies is challenging due to its complexity.
- Molecular dynamics simulations were used to analyze droplet evaporation on hydrophilic substrates with varying roughness (0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 μm), comparing results with relevant experiments to better understand the mechanisms involved.
- The study found that while macroscale droplets exhibited a stable evaporation mode regardless of roughness, nanoscale droplets showed a shift in evaporation modes with increasing roughness, highlighting the significant influence of scale on the evaporation dynamics and heat transfer efficiency on rough substrates.
