Entropy generation minimization analysis of two immiscible fluids
Abstract The entropy generation of two immiscible fluids is investigated in a conjugate heat transfer system. The velocity and temperature fields are analytically obtained by solving the momentum and energy conservation equations. These analytical solutions are used to calculate the local and total entropy generation rates.
