A design procedure, based on a one-dimensional simulation, is presented for an ejection refrigeration system. Heat exchangers are included in the calculation, accounting for temperature differences between the fluids and for pressure losses. The ideal gas assumption, which is quite common in the literature concerning ejector systems, is avoided. Furthermore, the supersonic diffuser is designed with a continuous profile, without cylindrical piece, controlling the variation of momentum along the flow path and accounting for friction. At design conditions, this should reduce the irreversibility due to the normal shock.

Abstract

A design procedure, based on a one-dimensional simulation, is presented for an ejection refrigeration system. Heat exchangers are included in the calculation, accounting for temperature differences between the fluids and for pressure losses. The ideal gas assumption, which is quite common in the literature concerning ejector systems, is avoided. Furthermore, the supersonic diffuser is designed with a continuous profile, without cylindrical piece, controlling the variation of momentum along the flow path and accounting for friction. At design conditions, this should reduce the irreversibility due to the normal shock.
