摘要
An analogy between water flux and the field of temperature gradient in a column of wood fuel chips was discovered by these experiments.The heat-mass transfer coeffieient was deter-mined by least squares method.An equation relating water flux and tempetature gradient was devel-opcd and it was demonstrated that the tempeature gradient was the main driving force for watertransport.The meehanism was evaporation-condensation of water vaor through natural convcctionin air phase.The study gives a theoretical exlanation for analyzing the problem of water transport inwood particle material.
An analogy between water flux and the field of temperature gradient in a column of wood fuel chips was discovered by these experiments. The heat—mass transfer coefficient was determined by least squares method. An equation relating water flux and temperature gradient was developed and it was demonstrated that the temperature gradient was the main driving force for water transport. The mechanism was evaporation—condensation of water vapor through natural convection in air phase. The study gives a theoretical explanation for analyzing the problem of water transport in wood particle material.
