.. _IsoLinMoistureMat: Isotropic linear material for moisture transport -- IsoLinMoisture ================================================================== Linear isotropic material model for moisture transport problems described by the linear diffusion equation. Note that the symbols :math:`k` and :math:`c` in :eq:`lindiff` have a different meaning than in :eq:`lindiffheat`. The reason is that the nonlinear model for moisture transport described in Section :ref:`sec:NlIsoMoistureMat` traditionally uses :math:`c` for permeability and :eq:`lindiff` should be obtained as a special case of :eq:`nlisomoisture:governing`. On the other hand, the heat conduction model from Section ``IsoLET`` was implemented earlier and the input parameters are directly called :math:`k` and :math:`c`, so changing this notation now could lead to confusion for some older input files. .. math:: :label: lindiff k\frac{\partial h}{\partial t} = \nabla \cdot \left( c \nabla h \right) where :math:`h` is the pore relative humidity (dimensionless, between 0 and 1), :math:`k` is the moisture capacity [kg/m\ :sup:`3`], and :math:`c` is the moisture permeability [kg/m\ :sup:`\cdot`\ s]. The model parameters are summarized in :numref:`IsoLinmoistureMat_table`. .. table:: Linear isotropic material for moisture transport - summary. :name: IsoLinmoistureMat_table +--------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Description | Linear isotropic material for moisture transport | +--------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Record Format | :descitem:`IsoLinMoistureMat` :elemparam:`num{in}` :elemparam:`d{rn}` :elemparam:`perm{rn}` | | | :elemparam:`capa{rn}` | +--------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Parameters | - :param:`num` material model number | | | - :param:`d` material density | | | - :param:`perm` moisture permeability | | | - :param:`capa` moisture capacity | +--------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Supported modes | _2dHeat | +--------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Tests/Examples | `tm/isolinmoisture.in | | | `_ | +--------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
