where V: ventilation velocity (%) of the maximum value, Vt : ventilation time (hour); 50% right & 50% left, T: temperature (°C), t: time of sequence (hour), RH: relative humidity (%), EMC: equilibrium moisture content (%), FSP: fiber saturation point, MC: wood moisture content (%). T gradient: upwards or downwards slope of the temperature (°C/hour).
