KINETICS OF CAPILLARY SOAKING IN AN INHOMOGENEOUS ELECTRIC FIELD

The effect of an external inhomogeneous electric fi eld on the speed of capillary soaking of Newtonian fl uids into fi ne capillaries, representing a model of pore structures, is considered. The results of calculations are compared with experiment. The action of the fi eld is most evident at the fi nal stage of capillary soaking
