| Research Abstract |
The experimental and numerical investigation to utilize solar heat as heating of the cultural facilities of the farm products with the solar pond. In this study, the salinity-gradient solar pond was used. In this system, water is placed on the saline solution, and the heat from the sun can be accumulated in the saline solution due to the salinity-gradient layer between water and the saline solution. As the result, the 20 % amount of the solar power can be accumulated in the pond.
