Preface
The subject of this book is to present a critical review on the development and application of hygrothermal analysis methods to simulate the coupled transport processes of Heat, Air, and Moisture (HAM) transfer for one or multidimensional cases. During the past few decades, there has been quite some development and increased professional use of tools to simulate some of the processes that are involved in the analysis of HAM conditions in individual constructions that form the building envelope or whole building. However, as the v
