Manuscript ID; processes-1104338 Title; Effect of Surface Textures and Wettability on Droplet Impact on a Heated Surface
1- Wettabiltiy measurement should be added to the introduction section from the following papers. Please cite them - A feasible visual investigation for associative foam>⧹ polymer injectivity performances in the oil recovery enhancement - Simultaneous evaluation of capillary pressure and wettability alteration based on the USBM and imbibition tests on carbonate minerals - Impact of anionic and cationic surfactants interfacial tension on the oil recovery enhancement - Implications of anionic and natural surfactants to measure wettability alteration in EOR processes - Parametric study of polymer-nanoparticles-assisted injectivity performance for axisymmetric two-phase flow in EOR processes
2- Please compare the novelty of your work with previous literature and tell what are the differences to highlight the novelty of your work. It is essential for research articles.
3- Section 2 should be changes as Materials and Methods!!!
4- Please provide LFP figure for section 2.2
5- Could you please provide mesh sizes?
6- Could you please discuss the limitations of this experiemental work?
7- Could you please discuss what would happen for different channel shapes such as triangular or rectangular? What about capillary forces effect?
8- Sensitivity analaysis is missing in the results? Please add and discuss?

Reviewer 2 Report
One area where improvements are requested is in understanding the microscale processes and phenomena that are occurring on the mesh surface. It is highly recommended that the authors provide a qualitative analysis of the liquid-mesh itneraction and how the wettability affects the evaporation time. In its current form, a reader is left with mainly experimental observations without a sound understanding of the underlying phenomena.
