A fluid storage container with a baffle controls the heat absorption percentage of the container. Fluid that is heated adjacent to the surface of a container rises replacing colder fluid which sinks downward, regardless of the baffle. This behavior is able to lead to onset of oscillations in the temperature and flow fields. Due to blockage effect of a thin baffle, multi- cell recirculating vortex structures are observed. The number and strength of these vortices depend on the position and length of the baffle. For certain placements and lengths of the baffle, the time rate of the rise of the bulk temperature is increased or decreased.
La présente invention concerne un contenant de stockage de fluide doté d'une chicane qui commande le pourcentage d'absorption du contenant. Le fluide qui est chauffé de manière adjacente à la surface d'un contenant fait monter le fluide de remplacement plus froid qui chute, indépendamment de la chicane. Ce comportement est capable de provoquer l'établissement d'oscillations de la température et des champs d'écoulement. L'effet d'obstruction d'une chicane mince fait observer des structures de tourbillon de recirculation à cellules multiples. Le nombre et la puissance de ces tourbillons dépendent de la position et de la longueur de la chicane. Pour certains placements et certaines longueurs de la chicane, le taux d'élévation de la température totale est augmenté ou diminué.
