Assessment of the Efficiency of Thermal Waste Regeneration in the Blown Impassable Channels of Heating Mains by V. A. Sednin, T. V. Bubyr

“…The following conditions in this case were accepted: the air flow rate is not higher than 8 m/s, the length of the heat pipeline section ensures the air temperature at the outlet of the channel at which there is no increase in heat losses from mains water pipelines to the ground under normal operating conditions of heating networks. The energy efficiency of heat utilization dissipated by mains water pipelines as well as ground cooling in impassable heating mains channels was investigated by intensifying their ventilation and using heat pump equipment at the end points of the channels for heating mains water, depending on the geometric characteristics of the heating mains section, air temperature, soil and mains water installations at central heating points or directly at heat sources. …”
