Abstract

In this paper, a discussion of results is presented for the dimensionless analysis of generating irreversibility of vessels in which mixing and heating of fluid are done simultaneously. In the first case, the impeller inside the mixing vessel is the heating body, and in the second case heating body is a fixed ring and the impeller inside the vessel provides only mixing of the fluid. The paper presents a comparative analysis of typical irreversible dimensionless parameters in both cases. A mathematical model is established to describe the thermal-hydraulic irreversibility of heating-mixing vessel which indirectly gives them the ability to minimize and maximize the efficiency of such a system. Also, the paper established typical relations between the dimensionless entropic values and power number, as for the water heater impeller and also for impeller, combined with a heating ring, which will enable comparison of the required power numbers
