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 cross-section is occupied by the fluid, and the finger part…

The anomalous dynamics of capillary rise in a porous medium discovered experimentally more than a decade ago (Delker et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 76 (1996) 2902) is described. The developed theory is based on considering the principal modes of…

We study the dynamics of liquid climbing in a narrow and tilting corner, inspired by recent work on liquid transportation on the peristome surface of Nepenthes alata. Considering the balance of gravity, interfacial tension and viscous…

We study the dynamics of capillary filling in tubes of regular polygon cross-section. Using Onsager variational principle, we derive a coupled ordinary differential equation and partial differential equation, which respectively describe…

We consider the influence of quenched noise upon interface dynamics in 2D and 3D capillary rise with rough walls by using phase-field approach, where the local conservation of mass in the bulk is explicitly included. In the 2D case the…

A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is developed to simulate the dynamics of meniscus formation and capillary flow between vertical parallel plates. The arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach was employed to predict and…

We consider theoretically liquid rise against gravity in capillaries with height-dependent cross-section. For a conical capillary made from a hydrophobic surface and dipped in a liquid reservoir, the equilibrium liquid height depends on the…

We study the low temperature phase equilibria of a fluid confined in an open capillary slit formed by two parallel walls separated by a distance $L$ which are in contact with a reservoir of gas. The top wall of the capillary is of finite…

The dynamics of saturated vapor between two intersecting walls is examined. It is shown that, if the angle $\phi$ between the walls is sufficiently small, the vapor becomes unstable, and spontaneous condensation occurs in the corner,…

We study the phase equilibria of a fluid confined in an open capillary slit formed when a wall of finite length $H$ is brought a distance $L$ away from a second macroscopic surface. This system shows rich phase equilibria arising from the…

We report a new first-order phase transition preceding capillary condensation and corresponding to the discontinuous formation of a curved liquid meniscus. Using a mean-field microscopic approach based on the density functional theory we…

Unsteady growth of ammonium chloride dendrites during crystallization from an aqueous solution in a thin capillary is experimentally investigated. Dependency of the crystal area S on the time t for various sectors located along a primary…

The dynamics of capillary rise under different geometric and fluid conditions have the common signatures of rapid rise followed by an equilibrium state that describe the underlying competing forces. We present a new interpretation of…

Small water droplets or particles located at an oil meniscus typically climb the meniscus due to unbalanced capillary forces. Here, we introduce a size-dependent reversal of this meniscus-climbing behavior, where upon cooling of the…

Four different numerical approaches are compared for the rise of liquid between two parallel plates. These are an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method (OpenFOAM solver interTrackFoam), a geometric volume of fluid code (FS3D), an algebraic…

In this paper, we introduce a Robin boundary analogue of the Orlicz-Minkowski problem, which seeks to find a capillary convex body with a prescribed capillary Orlicz surface area measure in the upper Euclidean half-space. We obtain the…

When a capillary is inserted into a liquid, the liquid will rapidly flow into it. This phenomenon, well studied and understood on the macroscale, is investigated by Molecular Dynamics simulations for coarse-grained models of nanotubes. Both…

We study the meniscus on the outside of a small spherical particle with radius $R$ at a liquid-vapor interface. The liquid is confined in a cylindrical container with a finite radius $L$ and has a contact angle $\pi/2$ at the container…

This work proposes an ODE model for a capillary rise in pipes with variable cross section and compares it to the lubrication theory model. Two key assumptions are made: (1) radius of the pipe varies with axial coordinate, and (2) pipe's…

We numerically investigate the long--time evolution of density perturbations after the first appearance of caustics in an expanding cosmological model with one--dimensional `single--wave' initial conditions. Focussing on the time--intervals…
