    numerical method in heat and moisture transfer

    Heat and mass transport processes through walls can be simulated using numerical methods. The partial differential equation are based on fundamental mechanisms of HAM transports.

    Used methods include: finite difference, finite element, finite volume.

    Two related issues of simulation are the material properties and climatic conditions.
