In real wall or slab structures made of capillary‐porous materials (such as masonry or concrete) exposed to ambient air, the unsteady processes of heat transfer and moisture migration as reciprocal phenomena are observed. Basing on the Fourier general differential equations and using the assumptions of the elementary heat balance method, the problem of heat and moisture transfer has been studied in multi‐layer wall structures, such as sandwich panels. As a result the general equations were proposed and transformed into formulas useful in the FDM approach (Finite Difference Method). On this basis a computer program was written to analyse the phenomena mentioned above. Some computational tests for a concrete sandwich panel wall with insulation made of foamed polyurethane were presented and discussed to illustrate a possible application of this approach. The paper shows that the improvement of computational accuracy of modelling the thermal engineering problems requires an assumption of real paramet...
