Performance testing of a thermoelectric heat pump for centrifugal distillation of wastewater of a space life support system
Keywords:
тепловий насос, дистиляторAbstract
The paper describes the test results of a multistage centrifugal vacuum distillation (CMED) system with a thermoelectric heat pump (THP). The paper presents the results of research on the study of the main characteristics of the process of concentrating water and urine when using three- and five-stage distillers. Particular attention is paid to studying the influence of process parameters on the change in the efficiency of a thermoelectric heat pump. Bibl. 26, Fig. 4, Tabl. 3.
