Abstract

An effective method is proposed for calculation of the temperature fields beneath structures built on fills cooled by a system of small-diameter (as compared with the depth of embedment) horizontal vapor-liquid heat siphons. A comparison is made with results of computer-assisted mathematical modeling by the finite-difference method.
