Existent condition of partially wet state in capillary tubes
Chen Zhao, Jiajia Zhou, Masao Doi
We develop a theory that predicts the equilibrium states of a fluid contained in a capillary which has corners. Each section of the tube can take three states: completely wet state…
Capillary rising in a tube with corners
Chen Zhao, Jiajia Zhou, Masao Doi
We study the dynamics of a fluid rising in a capillary tube with corners. In the cornered tube, unlike the circular tube, fluid rises with two parts, the bulk part where the entire…
Wetting dynamics in an angular channel
Chen Zhao, Tian Yu, Jiajia Zhou +1
We analyze the dynamics of liquid filling in a thin, slightly inflated rectangular channel driven by capillary forces. We show that although the amount of liquid in the channel…
Wetting equilibrium in a rectangular channel
Tian Yu, Qicheng Sun, Chen Zhao +2
When a capillary channel with corners is wetted by a fluid, there are regions where the fluid fills the whole cross-section and regions where only the corners are filled by the flu…
