Abstract

The modern development of heat generators is associated with the application of non-traditional approaches aimed at intensifying heat and mass transfer processes, particularly through pulsed treatment of technological fluids. Rotary-pulse and vortex heat generators, whose operation is based on cavitation and hydrodynamic effects, are widely discussed in recent studies. A key challenge in the design of such devices is achieving high synergistic and energy efficiency, which largely depends on the structural characteristics of the working chamber. This paper analyzes the influence of geometric and operational parameters of the working elements on the performance of rotary-pulse and vortex heat generators. The study is based on a mathematical model incorporating the equations of motion and continuity of the fluid. The obtained results provide a basis for optimizing operating modes and design parameters of pulsed heat generators, contributing to improved energy efficiency and performance.

Keywords: cavitation, rotary-pulse heat generators, vortex heat generators, energy efficiency, mathematical model
