Conclusions
• Data is not conclusive. Further work is recommended
• Large micro grooves with 60º apex angles tend to work better (best performance: Plate 5)
• Tests conditions improve the micro grooves performance
• Micro grooves help to maintain a stable condensation pattern
• Eliminate “wall channel” effect and reduce heat losses
