Moisture Transfer Kinetics in Building Materials and Components: Modeling, Experimental Data, Simulation
Moisture is one of the most damaging factors of buildings. Masonries moisture content is defined by a delicate equilibrium established between the building and the environment. First order mathematical models can describe satisfactory phenomena like capillary rise and drying kinetics. Their advantages lie on the fact that they are general and include parameters with physical meaning. These parameters quantify the environment effect (temperature, relative humidity, air velocity) and the materials properties (porosity, density, average pore radius etc.). Constants introduced, such as capillary and drying time constant, correspond to the time that phenomena, capillary rise and drying, reach their equilibrium state. Furthermore, the same models can be used for the simulation of these phenomena on building components, leading to the development of a decision making tool for the design and selection of the most appropriate repair materials for masonries suffering by rising damp, based on materials microstructural properties.
