Hygrothermal modeling

Hygrothermal modeling is a scientific method used to analyze how temperature and moisture move through building materials and structures. It helps predict how buildings will respond to environmental conditions like humidity, rain, or temperature changes over time. By understanding these interactions, designers and engineers can improve building durability, prevent issues like mold or rot, and ensure energy efficiency. Essentially, it’s a detailed simulation that combines heat and moisture behaviors to optimize building performance and lifespan.
