Water movement in porous building materials—XII. Absorption from a drilled hole with a hemispherical end
AbstractThe water absorption characteristics of cylindrical and hemispherical cavities are compared. The absorption from a drilled hole with a hemispherical end is analysed in terms of cylindrical and hemispherical components. Water absorption data from a cylindrical cavity with a hemispherical end are analysed to provide values of sorptivity for various brick and mortar samples. The values of sorptivity are compared with those obtained from one-dimensional absorption data as well as from absorption data from cylindrical and hemispherical cavities. It is shown that the same two term equation may be used to analyse the water absorption data from all three geometrics.
