Droplets evaporation exists widely in industrial manufacturing and engineering applications. Optical visualization system was used to investigate the evaporation process of deionized water droplets on fresh taro leaves with different tilt angles. The evaporation time and mode of droplets were experimental studied at different tilt angles. The results show that the time for the droplet to completely evaporate decreased as the surface tilt angle increases. During the first half of droplet evaporation process on the slant hydrophobic surface, the evaporation modes were different between the two sides of the droplet. When the droplet on an inclined hydrophobic surface evaporated to a certain volume or a certain contact angle, its subsequent evaporation behavior was similar to that of a droplet on a non-tilted hydrophobic surface.
