Abstract: We propose an approximation for the functional form of the slip length for two complementary lattice configurations of superhydrophobic texture. The first configuration consists of the square lattice of the superhydrophobic spots employed on the no-slip plane. The second configuration is an 'inverse' of the first one and consists of the same lattice but of the no-slip spots on the superhydrophobic base. We validate our analytical results by a numerical solution of Stokes equation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
