Abstract

This chapter provides information related to simultaneous heat and mass transfer and dimension variations in unsaturated porous bodies of arbitrary shape during transient problems. Two mathematical approaches are presented and discussed: lumped and distributed-parameters models. Here, applications have been given to some engineering processes (cooling, heating and drying). A two-dimensional distributed model written in a orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system and which assumes the pure diffusion as the sole mechanism of heat and moisture transport within the solid is applied to ellipsoidal porous bodies (prolate spheroid). A lumped-parameter model written in any coordinate system which includes effects such as shape of the body, heat and mass generation, evaporation and convection is presented, and analytical solution of the governing equations, limitations of the modeling and general theoretical results are discussed.
