Biotemplated nanostructures for enhanced boiling are demonstrated using the scalable nanomanufacturing of high‐surface‐area virus‐structured coatings on copper, aluminum, stainless steel, and silicon surfaces. Superhydrophilic coatings based on self‐assembly of the Tobacco mosaic virus are cheap and scalable to real‐world applications, and are shown here to enhance critical heat flux and heat transfer coefficient by up to 200%.
