Abstract

Boundary slippages occur on shearless solid surfaces. This property is related to fluid and solid surface properties. The special boundary condition provides a high flow velocity at the liquid–solid interface, which renders drag reduction characteristic and less foul adhesion at the surface. The chemical composition and microstructure of the surface determine the slippage property. For instance, the super-hydrophobic surface bio-mimicking of a lotus leaf is attributed to the micro-nanostructures and low-surface-energy materials in this plant. A steady air shield exists between the fluid flow and the super-hydrophobic surface. This air isolates the contact between the fluid and the surface. This behavior causes boundary slippage and foul release. Another case is the riblet-surface bio-mimicking of a sharkskin, which possesses a number of microgrooves. The surface not only stabilizes fluid flow at the interface that causes drag reduction but also prevents the breed of organisms.
