Most drying simulation models describe the moisture migration in wood as a diffusion process,including free water flow at contents greater than the fibre saturation point. This means that wood isseen as a homogeneous material lacking internal structure. However, especially in softwood narrowsections, bordered pits, divide the free water phase into rather distinct units. It is thus quite clear thatthe flow of free water is governed by capillary forces and not by diffusion. A model has been developedthat investigates how water filled units are emptied one by one in a drying process. Simulations withthe model explain some experimentally seen features that cannot be obtained using solely diffusiontype models.Water absorption by dried wood is ge...
