The Moisture Transport in Porous Media (mt) interface (
) is used to model moisture transport into the pores of a porous medium, through convection and diffusion of vapor in moist air, and convection and capillary flow of liquid water. An
Hygroscopic Porous Medium model is active by default on all domains.
When this physics interface is added, these default nodes are added to the Model Builder:
Hygroscopic Porous Medium,
Insulation (the default boundary condition), and
Initial Values. Then, from the
Physics toolbar, add other nodes that implement, for example, boundary conditions. You can also right-click
Moisture Transport in Porous Media to select physics features from the context menu.
