โœฆ Synopsis


Most building materials are porous, composed of solid matrix and pores. The time varying indoor and outdoor climatic conditions result heat, air and moisture (HAM) transfer across building enclosures. In this paper, a transient model that solves the coupled heat, air and moisture transfer through multilayered porous media is developed and benchmarked using internationally published analytical, numerical and experimental test cases. The good agreements obtained with the respective test cases suggest that the model can be used to assess the hygrothermal performance of building envelope components as well as to simulate the dynamic moisture absorption and release of moisture buffering materials.

We propose an approach for deriving in a rigorous but formal way a family of models of mass and heat transfer in reactive porous media. At a microscopic level we set a model coupling the Boltzmann equation in the gas phase, the heat equation on the solid phase and appropriate interface condititons.

In this paper, a model for turbulent flow and heat transfer in a highly porous medium is proposed and applied to a porous channel bounded by parallel plates. Macroscopic continuity, momentum and energy equations are presented. Local non-thermal equilibrium is considered by means of independent equat
