A Study of Lateral Moisture Migration in Container Mediums
2005 Tampa, FL July 17-20, 2005, 2005If Volumetric Water Content (VWC) sensors are to be used in container-grown plants to decide “When to irrigate?” and “How much to irrigate?”, then the lag time from the time water is added to a container at the surface until additional moisture is detected by the sensors must be known. Where should sensors be located?

Electrochemical Migration of Copper in Adsorbed Moisture Layers
Corrosion, 1989Electronic devices are subject to failure through various electrochemical processes including moisture adsorption, corrosion, electrodeposition, current leakage, etc. The object of the present investigation was to characterize the effects of a contaminant on the moisture-adsorption process on a model electronic device.

Moisture Migration and Ice Recrystallization in Frozen Foods
1997Moisture 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.

Monitoring Moisture Migration in the Vadose Zone with Resistivity
Groundwater, 1987ABSTRACT 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, 1998Control 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 condensation within porous material
Journal of the Chinese Institute of Engineers, 1987Abstract This paper is concerned with the analytical study of moisture diffusion, convection and condensation within porous material. Applying the concentration and energy balance principles, we describe the one‐dimensional steady‐state moisture migration through the porous material from one side exposed to a humid environment, and film condensation on

Thermal Resistivity and Moisture Migration of Soil and Cable Trench Backfill
GeoCongress 2012, 2012There 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

Fat, Moisture, and Ethanol Migration through Chocolates and Confectionary Coatings
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2002The 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.

Frontiers of Chemical Engineering in China, 2009
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether moisture migration and sugar crystallization play an important role in the changes of IMF matrix structure. The migration of water was monitored with changes of water activity in different physical domains of samples during storage, while the crystallization of sucrose was determined with X-ray ...

Thermally actuated moisture migration in granular media
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1955The 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.
