When coalescing droplets jump: A unified energy conversion model incorporating droplet size and surface adhesion

Jumping-droplet condensation pushes the boundary of condensation heat transfer by enabling microdroplet shedding via coalescence-induced droplet jumping. The latter is empowered by surface-to-kinetic energy conversion. Regardless of extensive studies of droplet jumping on ideally non-wetting surface...
