This work, performed at Laboratoire des Technologies de la Microélectronique - LTM Lab, presents an analysis of the dew rate and resulting heat flux by exploring a large variety of microstructured surfaces, in order to understand the mechanisms of condensation and transport

of water droplets in a humid atmosphere.

Keywords :
Atmospheric condensation, Microstructured surfaces, Biphilic surface, Heat flux
