From the basic viewpoint of adsorption theory, the mechanism of the formation of droplets during dropwise condensation is analysed. It is proposed that a thin film of condensate exists on the area among the droplets and also a film of condensate still exists at the spots from which the droplets departed. Consequently, a mechanism of the dropwise condensation (droplets and film coexisting (DFC)) is presented. With the computerized thin film thickness measurement technology, the mechanism is proved.
