Since long time, it has been noticed that refrigerators are the devices which work almost 365 days round the clock; hence objective of energy efficiency improvement attracts much. There are several ways of improving the performance of a vapor compression refrigeration cycle. Use of an ejector as expansion device is one of the alternative way. The advent of new component ‘Ejector’ into refrigera...

In the recent times, the use of solar energy for the refrigeration purpose has been increasing day by day. Generally, solar used for cooling purpose has proposed many advantageous features in the refrigeration field. The cooling path is basically depends on the amount of solar radiation. The more amount of solar radiation directly increases the C.O.P. of the system. In this research paper, the ...

The thermodynamic and thermo-economics models for three-pressure absorption-ejector hybrid refrigeration system are set up. The thermo-economical analysis model of the system is considered in two cases of high-temperature heat resources: waste heat resources and natural gas fuel are presented. The performances of the system in two modes of the running hours per year (600h and 1000h) are calcula...

A vapor jet refrigeration system (VJRS) is an alternative to the conventional mechanically driven vapor-compression refrigeration system. The VJRS utilizes supersonic ejector as thermal compressor and has the potential to reduce energy consumption and utilize low grade energy for driving the refrigeration systems. In the present study, the performance characteristics of VJRS ejectors with R134a...

Experimental investigation on the performance of dual-evaporator refrigeration system with an ejector has been carried out In this study, HFC-134a is chosen as a working fluid. Test setup is composed of compressor, condenser, expansion valves, two evaporators, and ejector which is installed between two evaporators. The condenser and two evaporators are made as concentric counter-flow type heat ...

the present study analizes a trigeneration system based on an internal combustion engine and a steam ejector refrigeration system from an energy point of view.

There are several ways of improving the performance of a vapor compression refrigeration cycle. Use of an ejector as expansion device is one of the alternative ways. The present paper aims at evaluate the performance improvement of a vapor compression refrigeration cycle under a wide range of operating conditions. A numerical model is developed and a parametric study of important parameters suc...

Ever since the renaissance of transcritical R744 systems in the late 1980s, ejectors have been considered to improve energy efficiencies. However, the invention of the ejector dates back far longer. This review paper gives an overview of historical and recent developments regarding air-conditioning and refrigeration systems that use ejectors. More than 150 ejector papers available in the open l...

In this study thermodynamic performance analysis of a combined organic Rankine cycle and ejector refrigeration cycle is carried out for use of low-grade heat source in the form of sensible energy. Special attention is paid to the effects of system parameters including the turbine inlet temperature and turbine inlet pressure on the characteristics of the system such as ratios of mass flow rate, ...

After the Great East Japan Earthquake, the saving energy became the one of the most important issues. Especially, saving the electrical power for air-conditioning at summer time is a problem of great urgency. We have been developing the ejector refrigeration system which can improve coefficient of performance of refrigeration systems by converting exhausted expansion energy into useful pressure...
