Dependence of Mineral Dissolution Rates on Two‐Phase Hydrodynamics in Single Pores
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Multiphase flow and mineral reactions co‐exist in many subsurface systems, and thus elucidating and quantifying the impacts of multiphase flow on mineral reaction rates are crucial. Our study established a benchmark experiment on calcite dissolution in cylindrical pores in slug flow, and performed a series of simulations using a validated pore‐

Humid‐Air Condensation Heat Transfer on Hierarchical Structured Superhydrophobic Graphite Composites
Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.Humid‐air condensation on graphite composites shows that making a surface superhydrophobic is not sufficient to enhance heat transfer. A hierarchical CuO/lauric‐acid coating yields spherical droplets but promotes Wenzel‐type pinning and adds effective thermal resistance under operation.
