Adapting block method to solve moist air flow model

Coupled problems describing global thermal behaviour of buildings are difficult to solve. We are interested here in the numerical resolution of algebraic non-linear systems corresponding to the steady-state behaviour. After a short description of the physical problem, main ideas of block methods are presented. Then splitting of the analysed model is discussed and the performance of block methods is evaluated. Finally, a robust hybrid block strategy, well adapted to moist airflow modelling is elaborated.
