The capillary factor, also known as the capillary rise or capillary action, refers to the ability of a liquid to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of external forces, such as gravity. This phenomenon occurs due to the interplay of cohesive forces within the liquid and adhesive forces between the liquid and the surrounding solid surfaces. In practical terms, it is most commonly observed in thin tubes or porous materials, where liquids can rise or fall against gravity. The capillary factor is crucial in various natural and engineering processes, including the movement of water in soil and plant systems.

How many type of capillary tube?
There are primarily three types of capillary tubes: open capillary tubes, closed capillary tubes, and capillary tubes with a tapered end. Open capillary tubes are used in applications such as blood sampling, while closed capillary tubes are often employed in thermometers or pressure measurement. Tapered capillary tubes facilitate fluid movement and can enhance the flow rate. Each type serves specific functions based on the requirements of the application.
