Effects of hydrophobic surface treatments on dropwise condensation and freezing of water /

The effects of hydrophobic coatings on the dropwise condensation process for a flat horizontal copper plate held at a temperature much lower than the surrounding air was investigated. Extensive qualitative and quantitative data were taken to describe these effects in terms of dropsize distributions...
