Sentence examples for spreading of liquid from inspiring English sources

This basic configuration has been chosen to evaluate the radial spreading of liquid flow through a fixed bed.

The spreading of liquid in a packed column can be simulated by a dispersive mechanism using the Dutkai and Ruckenstein boundary conditions at the wall.

A major implication of this phenomena is that liquid will spread more on less wettable (but porous) surfaces in comparison to more wettable (but nonporus) surfaces and a reinterpretation of experiments involving spreading of liquid over porous solids is required.
