Abandoned storm basin
Today we will focus on a unique facility, built in the USSR and was named storm basin. Author opened the curtain of this unusual building, located in the Crimea and told his story.
urya in a glass. We all know the expression, which means the noise from nothing. But not everyone knows that in the Soviet times in the Crimea was a facility where this very tempest in a teapot created. Of course, the correct structure is referred to the storm basin. That's just the pool this building does not look like. But it seems just on the glass. Wherein water is not poured in, and between the glass walls. And at the top are huge fans that create the storm. And inside the glass on the bottom turret ... A kind of small water Collider, which many considered a strange and useless structure, covered with real and invented stories, which involve even dolphins, which run between the walls of "glass».
Crimea, Katsiveli village. Many have probably seen the old tower with red tile roof and wind felled pole wind rose. This is the tower, which are inside the glass for the production of storms.
In the distant 50th years of XX century there was organized Experimental Base Marine Hydrophysical Institute, which now is a branch of the Sevastopol Institute of hydro. There are so to speak three major research facility - the instrument rock Oceanographic platform and storm basin. Next there is still an interesting geliostantsiya and one of Europe's largest radio telescopes. And all this ... abandoned. Storm swimming pool was built in 1953 on the draft V. Shuleikin - the founder of the new field of physics - the physics of the sea. Scientifically it is called Aerohydrodynamic channel.
Before entering the storm basin. Installation, in fact, is unique. Pool built in the shape of a closed ring, so the path of the waves has no beginning and no end, and the wind acts on them continuously throughout, causing only the growth of the waves, just as it does at sea. Where does the wind? On the roof of the 40-meter in diameter cup 21 is a huge fan, which pushes air into the channel between the walls of the glass. A little further on, I'll show them separately.
Note the anchor on the gates of the pool. One painted, second to none. White paint was left after the filming of "Heterosexual major Sokolova" Andrei Panin in the title role. It was his last film role
Patio pool. Among the rusty structures collapsing glass cupola is located, built in neoclassical style by architect Shchusev. There are residential and academic facilities for laboratory workers.
View of the pool from the entrance to the turret. Now openings gaping emptiness, and were once covered with thick glasses, some of which are still standing in their places
Entrance to the residential tower.
A steep spiral staircase leads to the top of the tower, which offers a great view
View from the top of the tower in a glass of the storm basin. The roof can be seen the very huge fans. Their 21. Later we will go up to them, too. The outer diameter of the ring - 40 m, width of channel - 2 m, the height from the bottom to kryshi- 5, 6 m. The bottom of the walls and roof of the channel are welded from steel sheets of a thickness of 10 mm. Some walls in the sector with an angle of 60 ° glazed, and in this area is convenient to observe filming and waves to the light. Lower 2, 5-3 m channel filled with sea water.
It looks like the outside of the glazed
Behind the turret more returns to the Soviet Union '60s
Just pack and a bottle of glass remind us that we are in the present
Climb to the roof of the pool to the fans.
Four nozzles, if the iron fingers of the robot, go to the ceiling of the pool. Fans allowed to create wind speeds of up to 19 meters per second. As a result, the pool can get quite large wind waves: up to 1, 5 m, a length of 15 m and a period of up to 4 seconds.
From the roof of "glasses" views of the mountain cat and oceanographic platform.
It's time to get inside.
Remains in place sheets of glass. Many barely kept in their places.
Some windows were removed from the cells and they stand around the pool. The thickness of the sheets 15 mm.
IPhone to scale
ak looks for a glass of storms inside. The ceiling fan nozzles visible
Once there were raging waves ... now calm and the bottom gradually filled with pieces of rust peeling from the walls and roof of the pool
Nozzles fans
At one site posted an old window frames.
They say that the pool even if his life was not in great demand, even though it was carried out and a lot of research in addition to hydro Marine Institute, the Physics Department of Moscow State University, Sukhumi Scientific Station Marine Acoustics Institute, design institute of the Ministry of the Navy of the USSR and others. Some scientists say that they were not taken into account the centrifugal forces that inevitably arise in a circular motion and significantly affecting the formation of waves, so the idea was false, and the building, popularly called seldetronom and stood costly monument to Soviet engineering. Like it or not ... only know the scientists.
Rumor has it that in the storm basin ran even dolphins for some research. Personally, I can hardly believe this version, as no gateway to start here animals or gateway for the return of their selection does not exist.
Today, the need for storm basin is completely absent, as There are modern computer modeling system, replacing the similar structures. Here it is, slowly rusting, useless ...
The unusual construction. In a beautiful location. On the ground doroguschy southern coast. For how long?
