Abstract
The paper provides a procedure for and the results of the mathematical modeling of an optimum heat accumulator with phase change which operates with periodic recharging from a solar energy concentrator. Calculations have been carried out for two types of heat transfer media with laminar and turbulent flow conditions of the media.
