Abstract
Based on a dimensional analysis of flow rate in nanoenvironment, the aggregate response of a nanoporous particle subjected to a dynamic pressure is studied in context of effective phase transformation. The numerical results indicate that in the early stage the system behavior is mostly determined by the nucleation and associated growth of saturated pore clusters (SPCs), while in the late stage the SPC coalescence becomes predominantly important. The relations between the absorption time and the sizes of the particle and the pores are highly nonlinear.
