Editorial summary
A standard FLEC was used with experiments and mathematical modelling to examine water-vapour permeation through a hydrophilic polymer membrane. The work relates moisture-transfer effectiveness to transfer units and uses the resulting correlation to infer membrane diffusivity.

FLEC use
Direct FLEC measurements
FLEC is the experimental cell used to study the membrane's moisture-transfer behaviour; the primary contribution concerns the material and its transfer correlation rather than development or validation of FLEC itself.
