| Zusammenfassung: | Droplets may rebound/levitate when deposited over a hot substrate (beyond a critical temperature) due to the formation of a stable vapor microcushion between the droplet and the substrate. This is known as the Leidenfrost phenomenon. In this article, we experimentally allow droplets to impact the hot surface with a certain velocity, and the temperature at which droplets show the onset of rebound with minimal spraying is known as the dynamic Leidenfrost temperature (TDL). Here we propose and validate a novel paradigm of augmenting the TDL by employing droplets with stable nanobubbles dispersed in the fluid. In this first-of-its-kind report, we show that the TDL can be delayed significantly by the aid of nanobubble-dispersed droplets. We explore the influence of the impact Weber number (We), the Ohnesorge number (Oh), and the role of nanobubble concentration on the TDL. At a fixed impact velocity, the TDL was noted to increase with the increase in nanobubble concentration and decrease with an increase in impact velocity for a particular nanobubble concentration. Finally, we elucidated the overall boiling behaviors of nanobubble-dispersed fluid droplets with the substrate temperature in the range of 150-400 °C against varied impact We through a detailed phase map. These findings may be useful for further exploration of the use of nanobubble-dispersed fluids in high heat flux and high-temperature-related problems and devices |
