บทคัดย่อ

The developed moisture transport model is introduced in forms of water vapor transport described by Fick’s diffusion and liquid water transport described by Darcy’s law. The transport models are evaluated by comparing with the experiment results of concrete samples subjected to specific studied boundary conditions and measured by microwave based and traditional methods.
