The experimental, theoretical and numerical research on capillarity in porous media has lasted for more than a century, and the research results have been widely used in various fields, such as the development of conventional and unconventional resources. However, although the research has made great progress, the complex imbibition mechanism poses new challenges to us. The 1st National Conference on Imbibition Theory and Application in Porous Media was held in Beijing from April 22 to 24, 2023, to gather researchers who are interested in imbibition research, exchange the latest progress and achievements in the field of imbibition in porous media, and discuss research hotspots and difficulties.","PeriodicalId":34047,"journal":{"name":"Capillarity","volume":"135 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82257192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Entwistle","doi":"10.46690/capi.2023.03.01","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.46690/capi.2023.03.01","url":null,"abstract":": Design of hygiene products such as sanitary napkins, diapers, etc. is heavily dependent on the liquid absorption performance of fabrics. As fibres swell upon liquid absorption, their liquid absorption performance changes. Understanding the flow through porous media under swelling conditions has important implications for product design and has yet to be elucidated fully. The goal of our research was to study the effect of fibre swelling experimentally. Cotton is selected as the test fabric as it is commonly used in most hygiene applications. Under swelling conditions, the effect of swelling on individual fibres, porosity, permeability, and performance of the cotton fabric is analysed. Findings showed that upon water absorption, the fibre diameter increased by 10%, porosity decreased by 11%, and permeability decreased by 60% under fully swollen conditions. The porosity reduction is also predicted analytically using the data obtained from the fibre swelling measurements. In contrast, predictions of commonly used analytical models showed only a 30% reduction in the porosity. To correct this, two new correction factors to account for effects of inter-fibre interactions on the total swelling rate of fabric are proposed. The performance measures of cotton samples under swelling conditions indicated that advancement of the flow front on the lower face was more dominant than the upper face of the sample possibly related to gravity. These experimental data improve our understanding of wicking flow which can help to improve the design of hygiene products and to develop more realistic computational fluid dynamics models.","PeriodicalId":34047,"journal":{"name":"Capillarity","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79709970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
