Abstract
In the present paper, a mathematical model is developed to design R134a ejector and to predict the performance characteristics of a vapor jet refrigeration system over a wide range of the investigated parameters. These parameters include boiling temperature (65–85 °C), condensing temperature (25–40 °C), evaporating temperature (0–10 °C), degrees of superheat (0–15 °C), nozzle efficiency (0.75–0.95) and diffuser efficiency (0.75–0.95). Simulated results showed that the present model data are in good agreement with experimental data in the literature with an average error of 6%. It is found that the ejector area ratio at boiling temperature of 85 °C is about double that at boiling temperature of 65 °C for various evaporating and condensing temperatures. The present results confirm that waste heat sources of temperature ranging from 65 to 85 °C are adequate to operate vapor jet refrigeration system for air-conditioning applications.
