Setting of variable thermal conductivity

Hello everyone.

I need to create a material with variable thermal conductivity in energy simulation. The thermal conductivity of this material varies with changes in humidity and temperature. However, I found that there is no algorithm in EnergyPlus that can establish a relationship between thermal conductivity and “humidity and temperature”.

The ConductionFiniteDifference algorithm can only allow me to establish a relationship between thermal conductivity and temperature, while the CombinedHeatAndMoistureFiniteElement algorithm can only allow me to establish a relationship between thermal conductivity and humidity/moisture content.

May I ask everyone how I can establish a relationship between thermal conductivity and “humidity and temperature” in EnergyPlus.

Thank you all
