4. Water vapor transfer index (WHTI)

We have just characterized the physical quantities that define the hygrothermal state of humid air in time (at a given instant) and space.

In other words, it corresponds to a static state of humid air in a given environment.

What happens when a construction element separates two different hygrothermal environments?

4.1 Fick's Law

Consider a homogeneous wall separating two environments in which temperatures T 1 and T 2 are equal: T 1 = T 2 , but where HR 1 and HR ...
