METHOD FOR INCREASED EFFICIENCY OF ELECTRODE HEATER OF LIQUID AND DEVICE WHICH IMPLEMENTS SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: electrical engineering. SUBSTANCE: method involves running thermal hydrodynamic self-excited instability in inter-electrode gap in order to achieve negative constituent of feedback between average power of heater and heat content of water which enters inter-electrode gap. Another claim of invention describes device design in which through sections of channels which join inter-electrode gap with water to be heated, are less then throughput section of inter-electrode gap. This ratio provides device operations in mode of thermal hydrodynamic self- excited instability. EFFECT: stabilization of heater power due to dependency of power on temperature and electric conduction of liquid. 2 cl, 3 dwg
