The mechanism of heat transfer in porous bodies is suggested that includes low-scale turbulent pulsations and the macromixing of a heat carrier in communicating pores. As a result of the experimental investigation and theoretical analysis, a dimensionless equation of heat transfer is derived for the motion of a single-phase cooler and the classification of the regimes of internal heat transfer in nonordered porous structures as a function of Reynolds number is suggested. %8 2002-06-01
