Water transport through a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) with a small nanogap under a vertical electric field is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. Water transfer rate, water adsorption, water mobility and water orientation in the SWCNT with a nanogap decrease faster than that in the SWCNT without a nanogap with increasing the vertical electric field. The vertical electric field affects water properties by affecting the formation of a water bridge in the nanogap region. Our results are beneficial to design the energy-saving devices.
