In fluid mechanics , capillary length is a characteristic length scale for fluid subject to a body force from gravity and a surface force due to surface tension . The capillary length is defined as ref name Batchelor G.K. Batchelor, An Introduction To Fluid Dynamics , Cambridge University Press 1967 ref math lambda c sqrt frac gamma rho g math , where math g math is the acceleration due to gravity and math rho math is the density of the fluid, and math gamma math is the surface tension of the fluid fluid interface. For clean water at standard temperature and pressure, the capillary length is 2mm. A capillary surface that has a characteristic length smaller than the capillary length can be considered a low Bond number surface. A sessile drop whose largest dimension is smaller than the capillary length, for example, will take the shape of spherical cap , which is the solution to the Young Laplace equation with gravity completely absent.

File Vadose zone.gif thumb 250px Cross section of a hillslope depicting the vadose zone, capillary fringe, water table, and saturated zone The capillary fringe is the subsurface layer in which groundwater seeps up from a water table by capillary action to fill pores. Pores at the base of the capillary fringe are filled with water due to tension saturation. This saturated portion of the capillary fringe is less than total capillary rise because of the presence of a mix in pore size. If pore size is small and relatively uniform, it is possible that soils can be completely saturated with water for several feet above the water table. Alternately, the saturated portion will extend only a few inches above the water table when pore size is large. Capillary action supports a vadose zone above the saturated base within which water content decreases with distance above the water table. In soil s with a wide range in pore size, the unsaturated zone can be several times thicker than the phreatic saturated zone . Some workers restrict their definition of the capillary fringe only to the tension saturated base portion and exclude it wholly from the vadose zone. This is more common among workers addressing solute transport and water flow. Others define the capillary fringe as including both the tension saturated and unsaturated portions. This is the preferred definition among workers dealing with the remediation of salt affected soils as well as those dealing with the vapor phase of soil processes and bioremediation . It is not uncommon to see the capillary fringe treated as a boundary condition separating the water table from the unsaturated zone, without defining it as a significant part of either. Also it is the space between the surface layer and the aquifer.

Note how the tissue fluid is entering the blind ends of lymph capillaries indicated by deep green arrows Image2 Caption2 Precursor System Artery Vein Nerve Lymph MeshName MeshNumber Code TerminologiaHistologica 3 09 02.0.05004 Lymph capillaries or lymphatic capillaries are tiny thin walled vessels that are closed at one end and are located in the spaces between cells throughout the body, except in the central nervous system , and in non vascular tissues. The main purpose of these vessels is to drain excess tissue fluids from around the cell ready to be filtered and returned to the venous circulation. This tissue fluid upon entering the lumen anatomy lumen elongated cavity of a tubular structure is known as the lymph . Lymphatic capillaries are slightly larger in diameter than blood capillaries and have a unique structure that permits interstitial fluid to flow into them but not out. The ends of endothelial cells that make up the wall of a lymphatic capillary overlap. When pressure is greater in the interstitial fluid than in lymph, the cells separate slightly, like the opening of a one way swinging door, and interstitial fluid enters the lymphatic capillary. When pressure is greater inside the lymphatic capillary, the cells adhere more closely, and lymph cannot escape back into interstitial fluid. Attached to the lymphatic capillaries are anchoring filaments, which contain elastic fibers. They extend out from the lymphatic capillary, attaching lymphatic endothelial ... to the greater concentration of plasma protein s in the lymph.

Expert subject Computing date February 2009 nofootnotes date August 2009 In computer networking networking and in graph theory , capillary routing , for a given network, is a multi path solution between a pair of source and destination nodes. Unlike shortest path routing or max flow routing for any network topology only one capillary routing solution exists. Capillary routing can be constructed by an iterative linear programming LP process transforming a single path flow into a capillary route. First optimization mathematics minimize the maximal value of the load of all links by minimizing an upper bound value applied to all links. The full mass of the flow will be split equally across the possible parallel routes. Find the bottleneck links of the first layer see below and fix their load at the found minimum. Minimize similarly the maximal load of all remaining links without the bottleneck links of the first layer. This second iteration further refines the path diversity. Find the bottleneck links of the second layer. Minimize the maximal load of all remaining links, but now without the bottlenecks of the second layer as well. Repeat this iteration until the entire communication footprint is enclosed in the bottlenecks of the constructed layers. At each layer, after minimizing the maximal load of links, the bottlenecks of the layer are discovered in a bottleneck hunting loop. At each iteration of the hunting loop, we minimize the load of the traffic over all links having maximal load and being suspected as bottlenecks. Links not maintaining their load at the maximum are removed from the suspect list. The bottleneck hunting loop stops if there are no more links to remove. The animated image shows capillary routing footprint between a pair of nodes in a mobile ad hoc network.

Thermal motion is able to produce capillary waves at the molecular scale. At this scale, gravity and hydrodynamics can be neglected, and only the surface tension contribution is relevant. Capillary wave theory CWT is a classic account of how thermal fluctuations distort an interface. It starts from some intrinsic surface math h x,y,t math that is distorted. Its energy will be proportional to its area math E mathrm st sigma int dx , dy , left sqrt 1 left frac dh dx right 2 left frac dh dy right 2 1 right approx frac sigma 2 int dx , dy , left left frac dh dx right 2 left frac dh dy right 2 right , math where the first equality is the area in this the Gaspard Monge Monge representation, and the second applies for small values of the derivatives surfaces not too rough . The constant of proportionality, math sigma math , is the surface tension . By performing a Fourier analysis treatment, normal modes are easily found. Each contributes an energy proportional to the square of its amplitude therefore, according to classical statistical mechanics, equipartition holds, and the mean energy of each mode will be math kT 2 math . Surprisingly, this result leads to a divergent surface the width of the interface is bound to diverge with its area . This divergence is nevertheless very mild even for displacements on the order of meters the deviation of the surface is comparable to the size of the molecules. Moreover, the introduction of an external field removes the divergence the action of gravity is sufficient to keep the width fluctuation on the order of one molecular diameter for areas larger than about 1 mm2 Ref. 2 . ref J.S.
