An ejector driven by a liquid is a fluid transfer equipment to be used under a poor suction condition, which means that there exists a possibility to occur a cavitation. It is a highly reliable device because it has no movable part in it, that is only a passive equipment. The ejector is an inevitably necessary one to overcome a poor pumping condition and to mix uniformly two fluids, however it has a low efficiency since it requires a pump for its operation. This study is for the development of a new-type liquid ejector with the application of a nozzle shape alteration, which maximize the suction performance of it. which provides the increased competition with the domestic industries. Also, the increased performance opens a new manufacturing method to use a commercial pipes for the production of an ejector, which is based on a trivial loss of a performance. However, this minor loss can be sufficiently compensated by the increased performance of a new-type ejector. Therefore, the developed ejector by this study can considerably reduce the manufacturing time and cost while its performance is largely increased.

An ejector is a fluid transfer device to be used for mixing of fluids, maintaining vacuum, and overcoming a poor suction condition. To date, most ejectors have been made from the casting process. which is time-consuming and high-cost process. Therefore, a new production method of ejectors is desired if any. In this experimental study, we proposed a new type ejector manufactured from the commercial fitting materials and the welding process, which is equipped with an orifice type nozzle. The proposed ejector has a good integrity compared with the conventional ejector because the fittings have manufactured by forging and they have more strength than the casting materials. Furthermore we adopted a multi-opening orifice type nozzle for improving a suction capacity and compared with a single-opening orifice type nozzle. From the experimental results. we confirmed that the multi-opening nozzle had a food suction capacity than the single-opening nozzle and the proposed new type ejector showed higher vacuum than the conventional type ejector in non-load condition. These improved characteristics suggests that a new type ejector by using the commercial fittings opens the feasibility to be adopted in various industry fields and that the increased suction capacity can be achieved by altering the nozzle design of a conventional ejector.
