Capillary Rise in Macro and Micro Pores of Jersey Knitting Structure

Wicking in textile materials is a very complicated, multi-faceted phenomena. This paper investigated capillary rise in a jersey knitting structure. A mathematical model was developed based on the industrial construction parameters and the capillary mechanism. The capillary is studied in two pore...
