Abstract Passively generated lateral motion of fluid during pool boiling on asymmetrically textured mesoscale
structures is discussed in this Letter. The surface texture is in the form of 30°–60° mm-scale
ratchets with re-entrant cavities located on the 30° face. High speed visualization of growing
bubbles from cavities indicates growth and departure normal to the 30° face of the ratchets. A
semi-empirical model of net axial liquid velocity due to the non-vertical bubble growth is
developed and validated in a pool boiling experiment.
