Dynamic Moisture Vapor Transfer Through Textiles

Textile Research Journal, 1999
This study investigates the influence of semipermeable functional films on the sur face vapor pressure and temperature of fabric-film-fabric assemblies. The film added between two fabric layers affects vapor pressure and temperature changes on both surfaces of the assembly under simulated body-clothing conditions.

Methods for optimization of salt and moisture transfer

Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 1999
A model of the process of salt and moisture transfer is investigated. This model is described by the equation \[ \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}-\sum_{i,j=1}^{n} \frac{\partial}{\partial x_{i}}\left(a_{ij} \left(x;\varphi_{ij}^{(1)}\right)\frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{j}}\right) +\sum_{i=1}^{n}b_{i} \left(x;\varphi_{i}^{(2)}\right)\frac{\partial u ...

Moisture transfer in three hemp concretes

2014
The immense stress on the world's environment means that measures must be taken today to safeguard natural resources for tomorrow. This is the challenge the construction industry faces. For that, recent research has found a solution in the use of bio-based materials.

Thermal transfer of moisture in soils

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1943
In a pioneer paper, BOUYOUCOS [see 1,2 of “References” at end of paper] published experimental work in which he attempted to show that soil‐moisture moved from a warm and moist soil to a cold and dry soil. The movement, although he is not specific, was in the direction of the temperature‐gradient.

Moisture Transfer Through Impermeable Foam Insulations

Textile Research Journal, 1967
The biophysical characteristics of perforated foam systems are presented in terms of experimentally determined values of insulation and moisture vapor permeance (MVP). The effect of windbreak motion on the moisture vapor transfer through such systems is discussed.

- VISCOELASTIC STRAIN-STRESS AND HEAT/MOISTURE TRANSFER -

Drying Technology, 1992
ABSTRACT The theoretical analysis was developed to predict the deformation characteristic of formed clay during a drying process in a ceramic production. The three dimensional strain-stress distribution as well as heat and moisture transfer in a slab shape of clay were simultaneously analyzed by a finite element method.

SIMULATION OF MOISTURE TRANSFER IN SOILS

Soil Science, 1974
ABSTRACT A simulation program for a digital computer has been developed to calculate the soil moisture profile, the infiltration rate, and the cumulative infiltration under conditions of one-dimensional, vertical unsteady infiltration into soil. The simulation program does not require an advanced mathematical knowledge, nor does it require much ...

Moisture Content, Moisture Transfer, and Invasion of Stored Sorghum Seeds by Fungi

Phytopathology, 1970
Ad- and desorption moisture contents of sorghum seed exposed to relative humidities of 75, 80, and 85% were 14.9-15.8, 15.9-16.6, and 17.0-17.5%, respectively. At moisture contents of 14.5% and above, wet wt basis, invasion by storage fungi and decrease in germinability were proportional to increasing moisture content and to increasing time of storage.
