The Surface Wettability Effect on Phase Change collects high level contributions from internationally recognised scientists in the field. It thoroughly explores surface wettability, with topics spanning from the physics of phase change, physics of nucleation, mesoscale modeling, analysis of phenomena such drop evaporation, boiling, local heat flux at triple line, Leidenfrost, dropwise condensation, heat transfer enhancement, freezing, icing. All the topics are treated by discussing experimental results, mathematical modeling and numerical simulations. In particular, the numerical methods look at direct numerical simulations in the framework of VOF simulations, phase-field simulations and molecular dynamics. An introduction to equilibrium and non-equilibrium thermodynamics of phase change, wetting phenomena, liquid interfaces, numerical simulation of wetting phenomena and phase change is offered for readers who are less familiar in the field.This book will beof interest to researchers, academics, engineers, and postgraduate students working in the area of thermofluids, thermal management, and surface technology.

About the Author
Professor Marco Marengo gained his BSc and MSc degrees in physics from the University of Torino in 1988 and 1990 respectively. He then received his PhD in energy systems from the Polytechnic of Milan in 1996. He currently works as a full professor at the University of Brighton, and has previously worked as Associate and Visiting Professors at the University of Toronto, University of Bergamo and the University of Alberta. He was the founder and board member of start-up company ICENOVA and founder and president of the university spin-off UNIHEAT. He is on the editorial board of several international journals, including being editor-in-chief of the Atomization and Sprays International Journal, and is a scientific committee or board member for several international conferences.
Professor Joël de Coninck has been a professor at the University of Mons since 1996, where he is head of the Laboratory for Physics of Surfaces and Interfaces. He received hismasters degrees in physics and mathematics from the University of Mons in 1978 and 1980, respectively. His PhD in the Theoretical Physics group was obtained in 1983, working on a new probabilistic approach of the renormalization group to describe critical phenomena. He then made long-stay visits to centers such as the University of Oxford, California Institute of Technology and École Polytechnique. He is the member of several scientific associations, and has been the organizer, chairman or co-chairman of various international conferences and summer schools He is the author of 232 publications in peer review journals, some 300 technical reports for industry and around 20 patents.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Home-set, Mannheim, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
