Thermodynamic analyses of a modified ejector enhanced dual temperature refrigeration cycle for domestic refrigerator/freezer application

Qi Chen et al.

Summary: This paper presents a modified ejector enhanced dual temperature refrigeration cycle (MERC) using mixture refrigerant R290/R600a for domestic refrigerator/freezer application. The proposed cycle eliminates the vapor-liquid separator and allows low boiling component refrigerant R290 to enter the freezer evaporator, resulting in an enhancement of evaporating pressure. Thermodynamic modeling and comparative analysis show that MERC outperforms the basic ejector enhanced dual temperature refrigeration cycle (BERC). Simulation results demonstrate that MERC achieves improved COP and q(ev) by 23.1% and 34.7% respectively compared to BERC under typical operating conditions.

Mixing process of two streams within a steam ejector from the perspectives of mass, momentum and energy transfer

Yongzhi Tang et al.

Summary: A novel ejector model with species transport is proposed to analyze the mixing process between primary and entrained flows within the steam ejector. Systematic quantitative analysis is performed on mass, momentum and energy transfer perspectives, revealing that mixing mainly occurs near the local mixing layer. The study shows that essential mass mixing laws of the two streams are not necessarily achieved through momentum or energy transfer perspectives.
