Resumen de Moisture diffusion modeling – A critical review
Abstract Techniques for enforcing the continuity of solute field in heterogeneous solvent under the conditions of steady temperature-humidity, steady temperature but dynamic humidity, and dynamic temperature are reviewed. The continuity of the wetness technique is justified on the principle of equality of chemical potential. The partial pressure technique is one of the many possible forms of pseudo techniques that can be derived from the wetness technique. The direct concentration technique is fundamentally flaw. The peridynamic technique in its original form is restricted to homogeneous solvent. The saturated concentration of solute in solvents decreases with increasing temperature; the rate of change with temperature differs between solvents and this leads to discontinuity of wetness along the interface of solvents. Continuity of wetness at the interface may be enforced using the intervention technique, the internal source technique, or the explicit finite difference scheme. These three techniques have been mutually validated in a reported study.
