The pore size distribution and the fiber diameter on the coupled heat and liquid moisture transfer in porous textiles are investigated to reveal the mechanisms of the coupling effects. This paper focuses on a theoretical investigation of the coupling mechanism of heat transfer and liquid moisture di

β¦ Synopsis
The spatial distribution of the liquid phase in a typical, partially filled, porous glass (VitraPor #5) has been examined with the aid of magnetic resonance microscopy and field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance diffusometry techniques. The correlation length of the material turned out to be long enough to permit the visualization of the microscopic heterogeneity of the material by magnetic resonance imaging. Contrasts are dominated by transverse relaxation depending on local filling degree, which in turn depends on local microstructure. The bimodal heterogeneity of the latter was also visualized by scanning electron microscopy. The effect of heterogeneity on an effective diffusion coefficient has been examined for polar (water) and nonpolar (cyclohexane) molecules.
