The effect of surface roughness on capillary rise in micro-grooves

Abstract The capillary action is a unique feature of micro-grooves with numerous applications. This spontaneous flow eliminates the need for an extra pumping device to deliver a liquid. Capillary action depends on physical properties and features of the solid surface, as well as on thermophysical pr...
