Algorithms of the transient processes arising in a ground 
in which solar energy is accumulated with the use of individual vertical 
heat exchangers when the work of solar collectors is stopped or resumed 
are proposed. The results of solving problems on the nonstationary 
heat conduction in semibounded bodies by the method proposed were 
compared with classical results.
