The nonlinear mathematical model of a interconnected processes of moisture transfer, mass and heat transfer in horizontal soil layer is presented. The  numerical solution of the respective boundary value problem was obtained by the method of finite differences using the monotonic scheme. Software was created on the basic of developed algorithms and a series of numerical experiments were done.

The mathematical model of wood drying based on detailed transport phenomena considering both heat and moisture transfer have been offered in article. The adjustment of this model to the drying process of papermaking is carried out for the range of moisture content corresponding to the period of drying in which vapour movement and bound water diffusion in the web are possible. By averaging as the desired models are obtained sequence of the initial value problems for systems of two nonlinear first order ordinary differential equations.

In recent years, the use of phase change materials (PCM) to improve heat and moisture transfer properties of clothing has gained considerable attention. The PCM distribution in the clothing impacts heat and moisture transfer properties of the clothing significantly. For describing the mechanisms of heat and moisture transfer in clothing with PCM and investigating the effect of the PCM distribution, a new dynamic model of coupled heat and moisture transfer in porous textiles with PCM was developed. The effect of water content on physical parameters of textiles and heat transfer with phase change in the PCM microcapsules were considered in the model. Meanwhile, the numerical predictions were compared with experimental data, and good agreement was observed between the two, indicating that the model was satisfactory. Also the effects of the PCM distribution on heat transfer in the textiles-PCM microcapsule composites were investigated by using the model.

This paper describes a mathematical model developed to study the behavior of LPG tanks when subjected to jet fire. The model consists of a number of field and zone sub-models which are used to simulate the various physical phenomena taking place during the tank engulfment period. The comparisons between the model predicted results and the test data showed better agreement. The results showed that the jet fire partially impingement on tank wall led to higher wall temperatures and the time to failure was shorter than in engulfing pool fire. And the fire exposure started at the vapor wall is under more dangerous situation than the fire exposure at the bottom of the tank.

A mathematical model of condensation, evaporation and heat transfer in a regenerator having a non sorbing matrix is derived. Good agreement between heat and moisture effectivities predicted by a simulation of the model, and corresponding results from an independently derived equilibrium model is shown for a particular case. Details of an experimental facility for testing the performance of a rotary regenerator are given, and a comparison between results obtained from the facility and those produced by the model are given.

The performance of a membrane based heat exchanger utilizing porous paper as the heat and moisture transfer media used in ventilation energy recovery systems is presented. A mathematical model was developed and validated against the experimental results. This model can be used for design aide to predict the effectiveness of the heat exchanger. Furthermore, system analysis of an air conditioner shows an increase in the coefficient of performance and cooling capacity when paper heat exchanger is used, especially in a climate similar to the weather in Malaysia and Darwin.
