Summary

A COILED-PIPE EXCHANGER WAS EMPLOYED TO EXTRACT HEAT RAPIDLY AT RELATIVELY HIGH TEMPERATURE FROM A HOT-WATER CHARGED TANK. FOR THE HEAT-EXCHANGER ORIENTATIONS TESTED, THE MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS, WITH RESPECT TO THE QUALITY OF THE HEAT EXTRACTED WAS ACHIEVED BY HAVING THE AXIS OF THE COILED HEAT-EXCHANGER ARRANGED HORIZONTALLY WITH ITS INLET AT THE LOWEST LEVEL, AND WITH THE LOWER RATE TESTED OF WATER BEING PASSED THROUGH THE HEAT-EXCHANGER'S PIPE, PARTLY BECAUSE THIS LED TO A LOWER RATE OF DISRUPTION OF THE STRATIFICATION OF THE WATER WITHIN THE STORE.
