Type of article: Article
Summary
IN THIS PAPER A REVIEW IS PRESENTED OF THE PRESENT STATUS OF THE THEORY OF COMBINED HEAT AND MOISTURE TRANSFER IN POROUS MEDIA, DEVELOPED BY J. R. PHILIP AND THE AUTHOR. FIRST, ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THE LIMITATIONS OF THE THEORY. NEXT, ATTEMPTS TO TEST THE THEORY BY LABORATORY AND FIELD EXPERIMENTS ARE BRIEFLY DISCUSSED. IT IS CONCLUDED THAT EXPERIMENTS AIMED AT A STUDY OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF NON-ISOTHERMAL SYSTEMS SUBJECTED TO HYSTERESIS ARE NEEDED. FINALLY, THE PROBLEM OF THE DEFINITION AND USE OF AN APPARENT THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY IS ANALYSED.
