Hi, I am working with a 150 micrometer internal dia 360 micormeter outer 
diameter fiber. I place this fiber horizontally inside a chamber filled with 
water. I need the water to fill up the inside of the fiber uniformly. But air 
bubbles form and prevent this from happening blocking my fiber. How can i 
solve this problem? Thanks.
