Author(s) : OPPEL F. J., GHAJAR A. J., MORETTI P. M.

Summary

THE MODEL COVERS VARIABLE FLOW RATES FOR CHARGING OR DISCHARGING THETHERMAL STORAGE TANK AND CONDUCTION AND TURBULENT MIXING WITHIN THE WATER FOR TWO DIFFERENT INLET CONFIGURATIONS. TURBULENT MIXING OCCURRING IN THE TANK WAS SIMULATED THROUGH THERMAL EDDY CONDUCTIVITY FACTORS, WHICH WERE DETERMINED FROM EXPERIMENTAL DATA. THE MODEL ADEQUATELY PREDICTED THE EXPERIMENTAL AND HYDRAULIC DATA.
