Abstract
Thermal characteristics of combined compressor - ejector refrigeration/heat pump systems applied in heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC&R) of buildings are investigated. An original model for estimation of the thermal characteristics of the combined cycles is developed, to determine the influence of the evaporation, interstage, condensation, and generating temperature conditions on mechanical and thermal COPs of the combined system, and to optimize the thermal parameters of the cycle. Results are presented for different temperature conditions, with R134a as a suitable refrigerant. A comparison between the thermal characteristics of the simple mechanical vapor compression cycle, the simple ejector thermocompression cycle, and the combined compressor - ejector refrigeration / heat pump cycle is given. The benefits of implementation of combined compressor - ejector refrigeration/heat pump cycles in HVAC&R systems are discussed. The temperature lift or temperature difference between condensing temperature and interstage temperature significantly influences the thermal (ejector) coefficient of performance. If temperature lift is between 10 K and 20 K, high values of thermal COPs can be achieved (0.5?1.0, for generating temperature equal to 80?C; 1.0?1.8, for generating temperature equal to 120?C); If temperature lift is between 30 K and 40 K, very low values of COPth can be obtained (0.05?0.3). High values of mechanical COPs can be achieved (24.8?6.9), for compressor stage temperature lift 10?30 K.
期刊介绍:
The main aims of Thermal Science
to publish papers giving results of the fundamental and applied research in different, but closely connected fields:
fluid mechanics (mainly turbulent flows), heat transfer, mass transfer, combustion and chemical processes
in single, and specifically in multi-phase and multi-component flows
in high-temperature chemically reacting flows
processes present in thermal engineering, energy generating or consuming equipment, process and chemical engineering equipment and devices, ecological engineering,
The important characteristic of the journal is the orientation to the fundamental results of the investigations of different physical and chemical processes, always jointly present in real conditions, and their mutual influence. To publish papers written by experts from different fields: mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics and related fields. To inform international scientific community about the recent, and most prominent fundamental results achieved in the South-East European region, and particularly in Serbia, and - vice versa - to inform the scientific community from South-East European Region about recent fundamental and applied scientific achievements in developed countries, serving as a basis for technology development. To achieve international standards of the published papers, by the engagement of experts from different countries in the International Advisory board.
