Abstract We derive a one‐dimensional model that describes pressing of water saturated paper in the press‐section of the paper machine. The model involves two nonlinear diffusion equations which are coupled across an internal boundary. Existence and uniqueness as a number of qualitative properties are demonstrated. Further, computational results for a concrete case are discussed.
