Abstract
A numerical simulation of the coupled heat and mass transfers is carried out to analyse the thermal and moisture properties of cellular concrete during a manufacturing cycle. This cycle consists of two phases: a vacuuming phase is created first, then the material is baked under high energy and saturated vapour conditions. A 2D code was developped using a finite volume method. The numerical results were validated by means of a comparison study of the problem, in order to improve the process with a view to energy consumption and product quality.
