We present a theoretical study of spontaneous imbibition in a slit pore using a lattice–gas model and a dynamic mean-field theory. Emphasis is put on the influence of the precursor films on the speed of the imbibition front due to liquid mass conservation. This work is dedicated to Bob Evans for his 65th birthday in recognition of his seminal contributions to the theory of fluids in confining geometries.

Abstract
We present a theoretical study of spontaneous imbibition in a slit pore using a lattice–gas model and a dynamic mean-field theory. Emphasis is put on the influence of the precursor films on the speed of the imbibition front due to liquid mass conservation. This work is dedicated to Bob Evans for his 65th birthday in recognition of his seminal contributions to the theory of fluids in confining geometries.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
