The hydrodynamic characteristic of a layer of plastic bottles as elements of a water heat accumulator

A hydrodynamic model of a water heat accumulator made of plastic bottles is described. Rows of plastic bottles on lattice shelves are regarded as stationary layers of coarse packing. The granulometric and hydrodynamic characteristics of a packing of plastic bottles as heat-retaining elements in a so...

More Information
Summary:A hydrodynamic model of a water heat accumulator made of plastic bottles is described. Rows of plastic bottles on lattice shelves are regarded as stationary layers of coarse packing. The granulometric and hydrodynamic characteristics of a packing of plastic bottles as heat-retaining elements in a solar heating system are determined.
