Abstract
For the prevention of vapor condensation and accompanying damage in cold regions, the behavior of water and ice in porous materials should be understood. In this study, experiments on the freezing-thawing processes in a glass fiber board, which is a typical insulation, were conducted. The freezing-thawing processes were analyzed with the use of simultaneous heat and moisture transfer equations that accounted for the existence of ice.
