Liquid transport on a nylon surface moving between liquids through an air-filled chamber

摘要

The flow rate of liquid carried on a nylon strand moving from a liquid filled space, through an air filled space, to another liquid filled space was determined from measurements of electrical conductance of the separated liquids. The measurements are consistent with the transmission of a liquid layer on the nylon surface of constant thickness, indepen- dent of surface velocity. The layer thickness is low enough that an adsorptive strand can carry adsorbate from a solution at a practical rate.
