IRREVERSIBILITY OF HEAT-TRANSFER PROCESSES IN DOUBLE-FLOW CELLS OF VARYING FLOW HYDRODYNAMICS

Consideration has been given to the infl uence of the hydrodynamics and phase state of the fl ows in a double-fl ow heat-exchange cell on the entropy production in it. For the case of the Newtonian kinetics of heat transfer in such a cell, the authors have obtained formulas for calculating the entropy production in it as a function of the heattransfer coeffi cient, the heat load, the temperatures, and the water equivalents of the flows in the cell.
