Capillary tube refrigeration systems are integral components in compact refrigeration and air-conditioning units. These systems utilise a narrow, precisely dimensioned tube to regulate the flow of ...

Tube radial distribution chromatography (TRDC) is an innovative separation technique that exploits the spontaneous radial segregation of mixed solvent systems under laminar flow conditions in ...

A popular metering device used on many fractional horsepower refrigeration systems is the capillary tube. One field problem frequently encountered with this type of metering device is that it can ...

In the late 1910s and early 1920s a pair of scientists independently developed an equation that describes how a fluid rises in a capillary tube as a function of time. The formula—the Lucas-Washburn ...

Fill a narrow glass capillary tube with water, then turn it horizontal. Conventional wisdom says that the water will remain inside the tube. But a group of scientists in Spain and the UK has found ...

Gravimetric Capillary is the most common technique used to measure kinematic viscosity. It is temperature controlled, usually 40 ºC for single grade oils, and both 40 and 100 ºC for multi-grade oils.
