Explicit Multipole Formula for the Local Thermal Resistance in an Energy Pile—The Line-Source Approximation

This paper presents a closed-form quite handy formula for the local thermal resistance <i>R</i><sub>b</sub> between the temperature of the bulk heat-carrier fluid in the pipes, equally spaced on a concentric circle inside a circular energy pile, and the mean temperature at th...
