ABSTRACT:
Embodiments described herein provide apparatuses and methods for preparing fluid. In one method, a heater thermally associated with a housing for receiving fluid is operated to apply thermal energy to the housing. A second predetermined volume of a second fluid is introduced to the housing. The second predetermined volume of the second fluid is moved with the housing for a first predetermined time period. The first predetermined volume of the first fluid is introduced to the housing. The first predetermined volume of first fluid and the second predetermined volume of second fluid are moved with the housing for a second predetermined time period. The first predetermined volume of first fluid and the second predetermined volume of second fluid are removed from the housing. Another embodiment provides an apparatus comprising a first housing for containing fluid. A second housing is operatively connected with the first housing. A prime mover is fixedly-attached to the second housing and is operatively connected with the first housing such that the first housing moves responsive to the prime mover and such that the second housing remains substantially stationary with respect to the prime mover. A fluid inlet is fluidly connected with the first housing for supplying fluid to the first housing. A fluid outlet is fluidly connected with the first housing for removing fluid from the first housing.
