Vp. Vavilov et al., ACTIVE THERMAL MONITORING OF TF IE MOISTURE-CONTENT OF POROUS MATERIALS, Russian journal of nondestructive testing, 30(5), 1994, pp. 390-397
The measurement of the thermal inertia of moist porous materials by ac
tive thermal monitoring is analyzed. Various solutions of the heat-con
duction problem are investigated, and the assumptions introduced to si
mplify data collection are discussed. An error analysis is carried out
, providing a means for optimizing the chosen testing method.
