surfaces composed of dielectric coatings on opaque metal substrates. In working with this type of surface it is desirable to predict the reflectance of the composite structure. The intent of this paper is to present an analytical approach for prediction of the reflectance of this type of coating-substrate combination. The model employed in this analysis assumes a monodirectional flux incident on a smooth dielectric coating. which is in turn secured to a diffusely reflecting opaque substrate. The substrate is assumed to be diffuse. since a roughened or sandblasted surface would normally be used in order to insure good bonding by the coating. TRANSPORT EQUATION The model employed is shown in Fig. 1. The coating and substrate are assumed to be infinite in extent with a geometrical coating thickness much greater than one wavelength. The air-coating and coatingsubstrate interfaces are parallel. These restrictions allow the use of axial symmetry. In addition, since the problem under consideration is concerned only with reflection. the transport equation can be reduced to Beer’s law. which for the axially symmetric

surface; the remainder is refracted into the coating. The portion which is refracted into the coating is attenuated while undergoing countless reflections between the opaque surface and the air dielectric interface. It should be noted. of ourse, that for each reflection at air-dielectric interface, a portion of the radiation escapes the dielectric. The approach used is to account for the portion of the incident flux refracted into the dielectric separately from that reflected at the dielectric-air interface [2, 31. The radiant flux refracted into the dielectric will be attenuated by the coating and then accounted for in the boundary conditions as it is diffusely reflected from the substrate.

MIZUSHINAet al. [1] report the failure of a tetrafluorethylene coating to promote dropwise condensation of organic vapours and confirm its success with steam. This behaviour illustrates an important principle of surface chemistry which, although recognized at least qualitatively by Topper and Baer [2]. is sometimes ignored in condensation studies. It is a necessary condition for dropwise condensation that the energy of the solid heat-transfer surface be less than the liquid-vapour surface tension of the condensate. The concept of a “critical surface tension. yF”. has been used by Zisman et al. [3-51. These workers have investigated the reduction in surface energy of an initially high energy surface achieved by adsorption of long chain fluorocarbon acids on to the surface as well as surface studies of polyfluorethylenes. In particular Zisman made a careful study of the contact angle. 0. of drops of liquid from a homologous series placed on the surface. He observed a linear relationship between the surface tension. yrr. of the liquid and cos 0 (see Fig. 1). The critical surface tension is defined as the surface tension at which 0 = 0. i.e. the liquid completely wets the surface. The long chain fluorocarbon acids orientate themselves with their carboxyl group towards the metal substrate and their tails perpendicular to the surface. An acid such as n-perfluorolauric acid will display an effective surface of -CF, groups (and a critical wetting tension of -6 dyn/cm at 20°C) whilst P.T.F.E. will have a.structure of -CF,-CF,(and a critical surface tension of 185 dyn/cm at 20°C). In genera1 the degree ofnon-wetting is proportional to the degree of fluorination of the surface. In Table 1 the
