Thin Vapor Barrier
Application ID: 119451
This tutorial model compares the results between a domain approach and the Thin Moisture Barrier feature to simulate the moisture transport in a wall with a vapor barrier. The Thin Moisture Barrier feature neglects diffusion, two studies are proposed, a first one where diffusion is neglected in the upper domains, and a second one where diffusion is accounted for to show the applicability of the Thin Moisture Barrier feature.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
- COMSOL Multiphysics® et
- soit le Module Heat Transfer, ou Module Porous Media Flow
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Grille des Spécifications and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.
