Download or read book Transport Processes in Wood written by John F. Siau and published by Springer. This book was released on 1984 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has a similar subject content to the author's previous 'Flow in wood" but with substantial updating due to the abundance of research in the wood science field since 1971. Several different concepts have been introduced, particularly in regard to wood-moisture relationships. The role of water potential in the equilibria between wood and its humid and moist environments is considered. Two theories are introduced to explain the nonisothermal transport of bound water in the steady and unsteady states. As in the former text, the wood-structure relationship is emphasized.
