On the effect of surface roughness height, wettability, and nanoporosity on Leidenfrost phenomena

In recent quenching heat transfer studies of nanofluids, it was found that deposition of nanoparticles on a surface raises its Leidenfrost point (LFP) considerably [ Kim et al., Int. J. Multiphase Flow 35, 427 (2009) and Kim et al., Int. J. Heat Mass Transfer 53, 1542 (2010) ]. To probe the physical...
