Numerical analysis on ejector performance with varying geometric parameters of chevrons
The entrainment ratio of the ejector in an ejector refrigeration system (ERS) directly depends on the mixing between the primary fluid (generator) and the secondary fluid (evaporator). In this analysis, the effect of variation of chevron tip angle for a fixed number of chevrons N on the entrainment ratio has been studied. The analysis has been conducted in a steady state by solving the compressible and turbulence equations and rotational periodic boundary conditions with water vapor as the working fluid. The shear layer thickness for the chevron tip angle 60° is not only higher but also conserved downstream, resulting in the highest entrainment ratio of 0.4705. The variation of secondary fluid flow angle for different chevron tip angles is a significant parameter for the increment in the entrainment ratio. Also, the optimum L/D for the given working and geometry conditions lies within the range of 68% for all numbers of chevrons. There has been no improvement in the entrainment ratio with the variation in the penetration angle .
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Refrigeration is published for the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) by Elsevier. It is essential reading for all those wishing to keep abreast of research and industrial news in refrigeration, air conditioning and associated fields. This is particularly important in these times of rapid introduction of alternative refrigerants and the emergence of new technology. The journal has published special issues on alternative refrigerants and novel topics in the field of boiling, condensation, heat pumps, food refrigeration, carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbons, magnetic refrigeration at room temperature, sorptive cooling, phase change materials and slurries, ejector technology, compressors, and solar cooling.
As well as original research papers the International Journal of Refrigeration also includes review articles, papers presented at IIR conferences, short reports and letters describing preliminary results and experimental details, and letters to the Editor on recent areas of discussion and controversy. Other features include forthcoming events, conference reports and book reviews.
Papers are published in either English or French with the IIR news section in both languages.
