Any nonuniformity in local moisture content of paper which develops during drying because of locally nonuniform drying rates provides a driving force for in-plane diffusion of moisture, which in turn acts to reduce this moisture nonuniformity. As no data have appeared for the in-plane diffusivity of moisture during desorption from paper over the range of conditions existing during papermachine drying, an investigation was undertaken to obtain this information. Moisture diffusivity was determined to he a very strong function of the extent and state of water in the sheet, increasing exponentially with paper moisture content. The presence or absence of liquid water at the sheet boundary would effect moisture difiusivity when there is water in the pores but the direction of moisture transport in paper was found to be of overriding importance. In-plane moisture diffusivity is very much greater than that in the thickness direction, indicating that the non-isotropic nature of paper structure is a key factor. A microscale view of the mechanism of moisture transport in the thickness and in-plane directions was developed, consistent with the enormous difference in effect of moisture content on diffusivity in the two directions. |
