Type of article: Periodical article

Summary

OPTIMUM OPERATION OF HEAT PUMPS REQUIRES A CONSTANT HEAT LOAD. THISMEANS THAT THE 24-HOUR VARIATIONS IN THE FLOW OF SEWAGE EFFLUENT BECOME A PROBLEM WHICH NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED WHEN DETERMINING THE NECESSARY RATINGS OF HEAT PUMPS INTENDED FOR OPERATION FROM PURIFIED SEWAGE EFFLUENT. ALTERNATIVELY, FLOWSMOOTHING CAN BE EFFECTED USING THE EXISTING DRAINAGE AND SEWAGE PIPES. A COMPUTER PROGRAM HAS BEEN DEVELOPED IN ORDER TO OBTAIN SOME IDEA OF THE FEASIBILITY OF USING THE TRANSPORT SYSTEM AS SMOOTHING CAPACITY. A PHYSICAL MODEL STUDY OF AN EXISTING TRANSPORT SYSTEM HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT. COMPARISON OF THE MODEL TRIALS AND THE RESULTS FROM COMPUTER MODELLING INDICATE THAT THE COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCES REASONABLE VALUES AND CAN BE APPLIED WHERE EXISTING CONDITIONS SO PERMIT.
