A cycle of fundamental studies in the field of electrodynamic assemdlies of life-support and power support systems, which are related to with development of complex low consuming and closed ecologic on-board systems for orbital station of “Mir” and “Freedom” type has finished by the author. Integrated mathematical model of multicomponent electrochemical system with volumetric chemical reactions and software are developed for the analysis of mass, pulse and energy transfer processes, estimation of entropy. Result of investigation of the mathematical model of homogeneous anddouble-phase electrochemical system allowed to obtain generalized criterion equations for the mass transfer, criterion dependencies of stabilization lengths for hydrodynamics and density fields, which are very convenient in engineering for the estimation of coefficients of mass output for electrochemical concentrator of carbonic acid gas for example.
