ABSTRACT
Inspired by Stefan Michalski's article 'Leakage prediction for buildings, cases, bags and bottles' (Studies in Conservation 39 (1994) 168-186) an attempt is made to explain the basic physics ingredients in the modelling of mass transfer processes, comprehensible to the non physicist. Special attention will be given to some underlaying assumptions. Their validity with respect to some real display cases will be discussed.
