Micro–Nano Water Film Enabled High-Performance Interfacial Solar Evaporation
Nano-Micro Letters, 2023 Interfacial solar evaporation holds great promise to address the freshwater shortage. However, most interfacial solar evaporators are always filled with water throughout the evaporation process, thus bringing unavoidable heat loss.

Physical Review E, 2023 Evaporation of a liquid layer on a substrate is examined without the often-used isothermality assumption -- i.e., temperature variations are accounted for. Qualitative estimates show that nonisothermality makes the evaporation rate depend on the conditions the substrate is maintained at.

A macroscopic model for sessile droplet evaporation on a flat surface [PDF]
, 2018 The evaporation of sessile droplets on a flat surface involves a complex interplay between phase change, diffusion, advection and surface forces. In an attempt to significantly reduce the complexity of the problem and to make it manageable, we propose a ...
