The evaporation of a fluid contained in a porous material occurs by cavitation when the pores are connected to the outer gas reservoir through small constrictions. Using monolithic transparent porous samples, we have measured the cavitation rate J as a function of the departure from equilibrium for hexane at room temperature [1] and nitrogen over a wide temperature range.
When the radius of the critical nucleus R* is large, our measurements are in agreement with the prediction of the Classical Nucleation Theory. However, when the thickness of the interface is not negligible compared to R*, we find that J is much larger than predicted. We show that this shift can be accounted for if the liquid-vapor surface tension is allowed to depend on the interface curvature. This dependence is in reasonable agreement with Density Functional calculations for Lennard-Jones fluid, including the correction to second order in curvature.
