ABSTRACT = {Flow boiling heat transfer is an effective way to fulfill the energy transfer. The wettability of boiling surface influences the liquid spreading ability and 
the growth, departure, and release frequency of bubbles, which determines the heat transfer performance. According to the wettability and combination 
forms, boiling surface are classified into weak wetting surface, strong wetting surface, and heterogeneous wetting surface. Fabricating by physical, 
chemical method or coating the original surface with a layer of low surface energy, the weak wetting surface has more effective activation point and 
nucleation center density to improve heat transfer performance at low heat flux. The strong wetting surface always formed by physical or chemical 
treatment to enhance the rapid rewetting of the wall surface. It has a smaller bubble separation diameter, higher separation frequency and higher CHF. 
The heterogeneous wetting surface, having the synthetic effects of the strong and weak surface wettabilities, is a hot issue of recent study. But its 
composition and heat transfer enhancement mechanism are very complicated which need to study thoroughly. Furthermore, the intelligent wetting 
surface, having the dynamics wettability function, is also briefly analyzed in this paper. Despite the advances in this aspect, the boiling surfaces can be 
further optimized by fabricate effective wettability to achieve a strong stability, high heat transfer performance and realize the synergistic effect of flow 
pattern and heat transfer.},
