Optimal design of permeable fiber network structures for fog harvesting.
Fog represents a large untapped source of potable water, especially in arid climates. Numerous plants and animals use textural and chemical features on their surfaces to harvest this precious resource. In this work, we investigate the influence of the surface wettability characteristics, length scale, and weave density on the fog-harvesting capability of woven meshes. We develop a combined hydr...
متن کاملdynamical assessment of fog harvesting based on fractal theory
abstract the limitation of water sources in most places all over the world, especially in arid and semi-arid lands is an important issue for those who live in these areas. many governments have dedicated their efforts toward finding new water resources to obtain water. fog and cap clouds harvesting are one of the candidate methods to produce pure water. many countries including chile, peru, ecu...
متن کاملTrees harvesting the clouds: fog nets threatened by climate change.
The major direct drivers of environmental change in mountains are relief, hydroclimate and land use. Mountain forests affected by persistent seasonal or annual fog are called montane cloud forests (Bubb et al. 2004). On the slopes of temperate mountains, the elevation of the cloud base marks the transition from mon-tane (hardwood-deciduous, lower-altitude) to cloud (conifer-evergreen, higher-al...
متن کاملFog Mesh Studies for Fog Removal
Field tests concerning a fog mesh method for fog removal are discussed. The first tests were performed at the Pyhäsalmi Mine, Finland. As this study gave promising results, further studies were completed at the Orivesi Mine. The results of these most recent field tests are presented and the two studies are compared. The Orivesi test set consisted of four materials. These included air filter fab...
متن کاملThe effects of surface wettability on the fog and dew moisture harvesting performance on tubular surfaces.
The efficient water harvesting from air-laden moisture has been a subject of great interest to address world-wide water shortage issues. Recently, it has been shown that tailoring surface wettability can enhance the moisture harvesting performance. However, depending on the harvesting condition, a different conclusion has often been reported and it remains unclear what type of surface wettabili...
