Concept:
sorption process: mathematical model
Equations and analysis
The transfer of moisture within the wood can be described by the second FickĄ¯s law.
1. Constant diffusivity i.e. diffusion coefficient D is constant.
2. Moisture is transferred through the transverse direction.
3. Moisture gradient as a driving force of moisture movement.
4. Newmann's boundary condition is applied in this study; i.e. the rate at which moisture is emitted through the wall surface at any time is equal to the rate at which moisture diffuses from the interior to the surface or vice versa.
