Capillaryfilling
Capillary filling refers to the process by which a liquid rises or is drawn into a narrow tube or porous material due to surface tension and adhesive forces. This phenomenon, also known as capillary action, is a fundamental aspect of fluid mechanics and plays a crucial role in various natural and industrial applications.
The primary forces driving capillary filling are adhesion and cohesion. Adhesion is the attraction between the
According to the Jurin's Law, the height to which a liquid will rise in a capillary tube
Capillary filling is essential for the transport of liquids in many biological systems, such as the absorption
