One and Two Dimensional Water Transport Predictions With Aid of Developed Moisture Measurement Technique and Experimental Investigations

摘要

In this study a moisture transport model is introduced in the forms of water vapor transport, described by Fick’s diffusion, and liquid water transport, described by Darcy’s law. In order to solve nonlinear differential equations of transport models, moisture storage has to be established. The transport models are evaluated by comparing with experiment results of concrete samples subjected to specific studied boundary conditions and measured by developed and traditional methods.
