Abstract

It is experimentally shown that a meniscus is raised under the action of pulsed-periodic spark discharges between the electrode and the meniscus in a capillary formed by two vertically fixed cylindrical rods. The recorded effect can be applied, for example, to intensify technological processes of the fabric impregnation.
