Overview: Fundamentals of equilibrium drop shapes, drop spreading, and coalescence are discussed.A dropwise condensation model capable of predicting the instantaneous drop size distribution over a textured subsThis book is an expanded form of the monograph, Dropwise Condensation on Inclined Textured Surfaces, Springer, 2013, published earlier by the authors, wherein a mathematical model for dropwise condensation of pure vapor over inclined textured surfaces was presented, followed by simulations and comparison with experiments. The model factored in several details of the overall quasi-cyclic
