The Leidenfrost effect When a surface is heated to above 200 ° C and a drop of water in contact with it, the evaporation of the layer at the base of the drop makes hovering, While the steam layer between the style and the material acts as a thermal insulator, not allowing the drop to evaporate immediately. Two students at the University of Bath in m. Britain, built a labyrinth that works with this phenomenon and initiates the drops in specific directions.
