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...

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's scales: macro and micro. In order to validate our model, a series of experiments was conducted on cotton jersey knitting varying the construction parameters. The results showed reasonably good correlation between experimental data and the theoretical prediction for the wicking phenomenon in different pore's scales. Further refining of this model will be the subject of future research.http://www.jeffjournal.org/papers/Volume3/JEFF08-00007R1Benltoufa.pdf
