Despite extensive research on droplet impact behavior superhydrophobic surfaces at high Weber numbers, there remains limited understanding of their dynamics low particularly during the retraction stage. In this study, we investigate dynamic characteristics and reveal a unique re-spreading stage smaller numbers. A critical number to trigger is identified as 4.9. dimensionless analysis force, cha...

The rapid anthropomorphic emission of greenhouse gases is contributing to global climate change, resulting in the increased frequency extreme weather events, including unexpected snow, frost, and ice accretion warmer regions that typically do not encounter these conditions. Adverse events create challenges for energy systems such as wind turbines photovoltaics. To maintain efficiently operation...

Conservation of genetic resources by semen cryopreservation is essential for biodiversity conservation and storage rare poultry breeds. Despite the widespread use this method not all individuals presentia similar capacity to be used after defrosting. The aim current study was identify SNP markers linked candidate genes potentially associated with rooster (Gallus gallus) sperm motility cryoprese...

Frost is undesirable in many applications. Previous methods of defrosting are either energy intensive or ineffective the long term. Meanwhile, frost a valuable freshwater source whose production delayed due to solid state and lengthy accumulation frost. Here, salt-solution-infused thin-film condenser (SSTFC) proposed for anti-frost at low consumption simultaneous production. The SSTFC composed ...

Liquid behaviors, including droplet condensation and frost melt water retention, of fins during frosting and defrosting processes on three aluminum fins with different surface characteristics under winter operating conditions of an air source heat pump were investigated. The effects of the surface characteristics, including the contact angle and the contact angle hysteresis, were analyzed. Drop...
