Monitoring Moisture Migration in the Vadose Zone with Resistivity

Groundwater, 1987
ABSTRACT Studies of moisture migration in the vadose zone were conducted at four field sites using a reverse Schlumberger resistivity array. Gravimetric moisture measurements on soil samples taken at each of the field sites were made to a maximum depth of 1.83 meters, and these results were correlated with resistivity values ...

Moisture migration and control in multi-domain foods

Trends in Food Science & Technology, 1998
Control of initial moisture content and moisture migration is critical to the quality and safety of multi-domain foods. Moisture loss or gain from one region or food component to another region will continuously occur in order to reach thermodynamic equilibrium with the surrounding food components and the environment.

Moisture migration and stratified texture in freezing soils

Journal of Engineering Physics, 1967
A calculation model is proposed for the problem of moisture migration in freezing soils. The location, thickness, and number of the ice lenses are calculated.

Thermal Resistivity and Moisture Migration of Soil and Cable Trench Backfill

GeoCongress 2012, 2012
There are many innovative applications of thermal properties of soil and backfill, such as geothermal cooling and heating systems, backfilling of high-voltage cable, etc., being developed. Therefore, there is a need to develop a better understanding of the thermal behavior of soil and backfill. The thermal resistivity and moisture migration behavior of

Moisture Migration and Ice Recrystallization in Frozen Foods

1997
Moisture migration is the principal physical change occurring in frozen foods and has major effects on the chemical and biochemical properties of frozen foods. It manifests itself in several forms: moisture loss by sublimation, moisture absorption and redistribution in foods or food components, recrystallization of ice, and drip loss during thawing.

Fat, Moisture, and Ethanol Migration through Chocolates and Confectionary Coatings

Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2002
The migration of fat, moisture, and ethanol is a common problem with chocolate-coated confectionery products. Migration of one of these components into the coating leads to visual and sensory defects such as sugar or fat bloom, making the product unacceptable to the consumer.

Moisture Migration through Concrete Floor Slabs

Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities, 1992
Moisture migration through concrete floor slabs can cause damage to floor coverings such as carpet, vinyl, and hardwood. In most cases, the moisture traveling through the concrete floor slab contains dissolved salts. As the water evaporates at the slab surface the salts form a crystalline deposit, which can also attack the floor covering.

Thermally actuated moisture migration in granular media

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1955
The movement of moisture in granular media with varying temperature gradients was studied by means of radioactive tracers in a laboratory. The mode of moisture movement is controlled by a critical moisture content found theoretically and experimentally to be about four per cent.

Moisture retention and migration in a coal product stockpile

2014
Most coal supply contracts include strict limitations on the moisture content of the products. This limitation exists because of calorific, transport cost, and handling reasons. Managing the retention time on product stockpiles to facilitate drainage commonly controls the moisture content in coarser coal products.
