A QUASI-STATIONARY TEMPERATURE FIELD
IN THE SHAFT OF AN OPERATING WELL

UDC 532.546

Temperature fields in the shaft of an operating well are 
studied experimentally in a quasi-stationary approximation. The expressions 
for radial distributions of temperature and coefficients of heat transfer 
are obtained with account for the dependence of the velocity of liquid 
flow on the radial coordinate. Calculations are made for laminar and 
turbulent flows.
