최근 기본 냉동사이클에 이젝터를 적용한 고효율 냉동사이클의 개발에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 이러한 이젝터는 그 적용 위치에 따라 이젝터의 역할 뿐만 아니라 냉동사이클의 성능도 달라진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이젝터 적용 위치가 다른 세 가지 냉동사이클을 선정하고, 각 사이클의 성능을 비교 및 분석하였다. 그 결과, 모든 이젝터 적용 냉동사이클의 COP가 기본 냉동사이클에 비해 최대 44% 향상되었다. 특히 본 연구에서 제안하는 이젝터 냉동사이클의 COP가 3.47로 가장 높게 나타났다. 그리고, 기본 냉동사이클과 비교하여 Bergander 사이클, Xing 사이클, 그리고 본 연구에서 제안한 이젝터 냉동사이클의 응축열량이 최대 21% 감소하였다. 따라서, 본 연구로부터 이젝터 적용 냉동사이클에서 이젝터의 압력비, 토출부 건도, 압축비 등은 냉동장치의 성능 향상에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소이므로 이들에 대한 최적 제어가 대단히 중요하다.

In this paper, the performance analysis of condensation and evaporation capacity, turbine work and efficiency of the OTEC power system using vapor-liquid Ejector is presented to offer the basic design data for the operating parameters of the system. The working fluid used in this system is $CO_2$. The operating parameters considered in this study include the vapor quality at heat exchanger outlet, pressure ratio of ejector and inlet pressure of low turbine, mass flow ratio of separator at condenser outlet. The main results were summarized as follows. The efficiency of the OTEC power cycle has an enormous effect on the mass flow ratio of separator at condenser outlet. With a thorough grasp of these effects, it is possible to design the OTEC power cycle proposed in this study.

In this paper, suitable working fluid of 1MW Organic Rankine Cycle(ORC) with liquid-vapor ejector using effluent from power plant is selected. The results of comparison performance of 5 refrigerants are as follows; R600a, R134a, R1270, R236fa, R235fa. The operating parameters considered in this study include the condensation capacity evaporation capacity and efficiency. As a result of comparison of basic ORC system and with liquid-vapor ejector, with ORC system presents the higher system efficiency since the ejector makes the turbine outlet pressure lower than condensation pressure through its pressure recovery. Also, this ejector ORC system is advantageous in miniaturizing the size of components owing to decrease of evaporation capacity and condensation capacity.

In this paper, EP-Kalina cycle applying liquid-vapor ejector and motive pump is newly proposed. In this EP-Kalina cycle, the liquid-vapor ejector is used to increase pressure difference between inlet and outlet of the turbine. Also the motive pump enhances the performance of liquid-vapor ejector, resulting in increase of system efficiency of OTEC cycles. The comparison cycles in this study are basic, Kalina, EKalina and EP-Kalina ones. The pump work, net power, APRe, APRc, TPP and system efficiency of each cycle are compared. In case of net power, EP-Kalina cycle is lowest among the cycles due to the application of the motive pump. But, the net power difference of cycles seems to be minor since the pump work of cycles is merely about 1kW, compared to turbine gross power of 20kW. The system efficiency of EP-Kalina cycle shows 3.22%, relatively 44% higher than that of basic OTEC cycle. Therefore, the system efficiency is increased by applying the liquid-vapor ejector and the motive pump. Additional performance analysis is necessary to optimize the proposed EP-Kalina cycle.
