A physical and mathematical model of deep impregnation 
of wood by a fluid which allows for motion of the fluid and air in 
its porous structure is developed. The results of calculations of 
the kinetics of pressure-gradient impregnation of wood are reported. 
An experimental impregnation bench intended for investigations of 
different impregnation conditions and for measurements aimed at refinement 
of the impregnation parameters is described.
