Abstract: | ABSTRACT A numerical investigation was conducted to study two-dimensional heat and mass transfer during convective drying of clay brick. The set of macroscopic equations takes into account the effect of gaseous pressure. The established numerical code has allowed us to determine effects of the surrounding air conditions (temperature, pressure and vapor concentration) on drying Kinetic and on space-time evolution of the state variables (temperature, gaseous pressure, and liquid saturation). |
