The mathematical model of non-isothermal moisture transfer and rheological behavior of wood during drying with taking into account the fractal structure of this material is regarded in the article. The mathematical tools of integration and differentiation of fractional order for description the mathematical model of this process was used. For finding the numerical solution of this problem the finite-difference method predictor-corrector was used. Results show the practicability of using the mathematical tools of integration and differentiation of fractional order to calculate the temperature and humidity fields and the stress-strain state during drying timber.
