Simulating Volatile Preservative Movement in Spruce Poles
Problem Addressed: Pressure treatment of transmission poles.
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Develop a mathematical model to simulate the movement of fumigants in spruce poles in service. The model is designed to be used in planning for proper re-treatment schedules and for comparing different fumigant formulations and application methods.
Key Findings: Diffusion coefficients and effective transfer coefficients of two commonly used fumigants, methyl isothiocyanate and chloropicrin, in red spruce wood were measured.
