Abstract
We propose a method of solving a nonlinear heat and mass transfer boundary-value problem for a conductive drying process in a capillary-porous material. We study the effect of the characteristics of the material and the magnitude of the heat flux on the time change in temperature, bulk moisture saturation, and air density.
