This paper provides a comprehensive review of published articles addressing passive
enhancement of pool boiling using surface modification techniques. They include …

Liquid–vapour phase change is a useful and efficient process to transfer energy in nature,
as well as in numerous domestic and industrial applications. Relatively recent advances in …

While superhydrophilic coatings with enhanced wetting properties have been shown to
increase the pool boiling critical heat flux (CHF), the role of nanostructures on its …

In the recent decades, the rapid growth of surface modification and fabrication technologies
has facilitated the achievement of boiling heat transfer enhancement on …

Owing to advances in micro-and nanofabrication methods over the last two decades, the
degree of sophistication with which solid surfaces can be engineered today has caused a …

We experimentally investigated surface roughness-augmented wettability on critical heat
flux (CHF) during pool boiling with horizontally oriented surfaces. Microstructured surfaces …

The rapid development of high-power electronic, energy, and propulsion systems has led us
to the point where the performances of these systems are limited by their cooling capacities …

The effect of characteristic of heating surface on nucleate boiling heat transfer is well
reported via many previous results. However, until recently, the study of surface influences …

We demonstrate that smooth and flat surfaces combining hydrophilic and hydrophobic
patterns improve pool boiling performance. Compared to a hydrophilic surface with 7 wetting …

Numerous surface modifications were proposed to enhance the critical heat flux (CHF) in a
saturated pool boiling. CHF enhancement is a result of the effects of extended surface area …
