MODELING OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER AND AERODYNAMICS IN A BULK OF STORED AGRICULTURAL RAW MATERIAL
V. I. Kondrashov UDC 582.5.16:631.243.4 Methods of mathematical and computer simulation of the microclimate in storehouses for juicy agricultural raw material are suggested. The calculation algorithms developed allow one to determine the aerodynamic and temperature-moisture characteristics with account for natural convection and arbitrary shape of storehouses in order to optimize the storing of biological products.
