Summary

MOST IN-GROUND HEAT STORAGE INSTALLATIONS USE A SYSTEM OF HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL PLASTIC PIPES TO CARRY HEAT EXCHANGER FLUID. IT IS GENERALLY ASSUMED THAT THE THERMAL EFFECTS OF THE PLASTIC PIPE CAN BE NEGLECTED. REPORTS A LABORATORY STUDY OF THE PATTERN OF HEAT FLOW AROUND FLUID-CARRYING PLASTIC PIPE BURIED IN CLAY SOIL. HEAT FLOW MEASUREMENTS AS WELL AS ESTIMATED CONTACT RESISTANCES ARE PRESENTED FOR A NUMBER OF CONFIGURATIONS. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 18, N.5, 1983, 22, 83-01608.
