Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of metal surface processing, and discloses a metal surface with an efficient dropwise condensation function and a preparation method thereof. The metal surface comprises a hydrophilic area and a super-hydrophobic area. The method comprises the steps that firstly, a pulse laser is adopted for ablating a metal base material, and a periodicity concave-convex micro-nano structure is prepared on the metal surface; after the surface is cleaned, a low-surface-energy substance is used for modifying the concave-convex micro-nano structure to obtain the super-hydrophobic metal surface; then, through surface precise polish-grinding or pulse laser ablation, the low-surface-energy substance of a protrusion part in the periodicity concave-convex micro-nano structure of the super-hydrophobic surface metal is removed to prepare the metal surface; the hydrophilic area is formed on the surface of the protrusion part without the low-surface-energy substance, and a recessed part coated with the low-surface-energy substance is the super-hydrophobic area. When the metal surface is coagulated, condensation droplets are formed on the hydrophilic area preferentially, since the droplets are limited by the surrounding super-hydrophobic area, the droplets more easily leave from the metal surface, so that the surface always keeps the dropwise condensation state,and the condensation efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of surface treatment of metal base materials, and more specifically relates to a metal surface with high-efficiency droplet condensation and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The process of water vapor turning into water when it cools is called condensation. Condensation is a critical step in industrial processes such as power generation, desalination, thermal management, etc. On the solid surface, the condensation process of water vapor includes two forms: drop condensation and film condensation. During film condensation, condensed droplets form a water film on the surface, which will hinder the subsequent condensation and heat transfer process and affect the condensation efficiency. On the contrary, in the case of droplet condensation, when the condensate grows to a certain extent, it will leave the surface, so that there is always an area on the solid surface in a bare state, t...
