На английском языке. A report within IEA Heating and Cooling Program – Task 7, 1983, 108 pages.
Within the IEA Task VII, the Subtask 1c called "Heat Storage" has the specific goal to collect and co-ordinate research and engineering information on heat storage systems to be considered in the design, analysis, and optimization of Central Solar Heating Plants with Seasonal Storage (CSHPSS). In Subtask lc three main fields were covered:
1. Seasonal heat storage simulation models
2. Cost data and cost equations for heat storage concepts
3. Basic engineering information for seasonal heat stores
The basic information collected in the Subtask among the ten participating countries has been analysed and presented in three reports dealing with each identified field. The Subtask work concurrently allowed the participants to select heat storage models suitable to the needs of Subtask la: "System Studies and Optimization", as well as adequate cost equations and cost parameters describing the various types of storage systems considered in the Task.
The purpose of this Executive Summary is to give an overview of the work accomplished in Subtask lc, and of the three detailed reports which resulted from the cooperation and discussions among participants.
