Abstract
The previously proposed simulation model for the heat-conditioning of frozen and nonfrozen logs was tested with experimental data from heati ng to pine logs of various lengh-to-diameter ratios. These simulations fitted the experimental results best when a longitudinal-to-radial co nductivity (diffusivity) ratio of 2.5 was used as input data, both for frozen and nonfrozen logs, respectively. Simulated data were within /- 10 percent of experimental results.
