For that investigation, the authors focused on moisture modeling. A new model is described, it is based on a CFD tool enhanced to include both detailed modeling of airflows in rooms and heat and moisture transfer in walls. The impacts of different boundary conditions are investigated ,in a 3D configuration. The way they influence microclimates in room are analyzed too.
