Determination of Mass Flow Rate through Plain Mesh Wick and Nano- Structured Mesh Wick for the Design of Thermal Compressor Systems

Creator:

Uwaoma, Ifeanyi A.

Abstract:

Wicking action refers to the movement of a liquid through a porous or a structured surface via capillary action. This phenomenon is affected by surface geometry, such as the wick thickness and pore size of the wick, as well as fluid properties, such as viscosity and surface tension of the...
