Drying simulation of a solid slab with three dimensional shrinkage
A mathematical model is developed to simulate the drying of a hygroscopic porous solid. The model, based on the gradient of moisture concentration per unit volume as driving force, takes into account the migration of water within the solid by diffusion and the evaporation at the interface. A mathema...
