Abstract:
This paper presents a closed form analytical solution to the augmented Young-Laplace equation for the meniscus profile in a capillary formed between four equal-sized tangent cylinders centered on the vertices of a square. The solution is valid for a large class of disjoining pressure isotherms and contact angles. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.
