The purpose of this study is to predict the performance of a cyclone drying machine and air ejector used in drying applications. This paper deals with optimization of the geometry of the ejector for sludge drying using computational fluid dynamics. To facilitate the design of a jet ejector for air drying machines, a numerical model of simultaneous mass and heat transfers between the liquid(sludge) and gas(air) phases in the jet ejector was developed. The steady-state model was based on unidimensional balance equations of mass, energy and momentum for the liquid and gas phases. It was shown that the optimum condition to minimize pressure and momentum loss of air in the ejector was d=220mm. It was found that sludge particles inside the cyclone was smoothly discharged by the conical wedge installed on the bottom of the cyclone.

Gas/liquid two-phase ejector is a device without moving parts, in which liquid is used to drive gas of a low-pressure source. In this paper, the hydrodynamic characteristics of a vertical down type two-phase ejector were studied using an air-water loop system. Entrained air flow rates were measured with inlet and outlet pressures of the ejector with varying water flow rate. Homogeneous bubbly flows in the discharge pipe were confirmed by the high speed flow visualization method. Quantitative measurements of void fraction were made using a newly developed fiber optic probe system.

The negative pressure as much as 10's mmHg is demanded at nozzle inside, in case of atomizing the large density molten materials. by conventional air jet nozzle. In this study, suction type fluid nozzle is designed by applying the ejector principle in order to clarify the air flow of nozzle inside, mechanism of liquid suction and liquid film formation. The results of this experimental study areas follows. Suction force of liquid is magnified by using liquid nozzle, and it is able to supply the liquid stable. Negative pressure at nozzle inside is varied by throttle angle of liquid nozzle, position and outer diameter of air jet nozzle, and have a influence on liquid suction quantity and liquid film formation.

In this study, the ejector design was modeled using Fluent 6.3 of FVM(Finite Volume Method) CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) techniques to resolve the flow dynamics in the ejector. A vacuum system with the ejector has been widely used because of its simple construction and easy maintenance. Ejector is the main part of the desalination system, of which designs determine the efficiency of system. The effects of the ejector was investigated geometry and the operating conditions in the hydraulic characteristics. The ejector consists mainly of a nozzle, suction chamber, mixing tube(throat), diffuser and draft tube. Liquid is supplied to the ejector nozzle, the fast liquid jet produced by the nozzle entrains and the non condensable gas was sucked into the mixing tube. In the present study, the multiphase CFD modeling was carried out to determine the hydrodynamic characteristics of seawater-air ejector. Two-dimensional geometry was considered with the quadrilateral-mashing scheme. The gas suction rate increases with increasing Motive flow circulating rate.

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.

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.

본 연구는 이젝터 팽창기를 적용한 냉동기에서 팽창한 냉매가 액기분리기에 포집된 후, 이 중 포화기체의 일부는 이젝터로 재흡입되고, 포화액체는 증발기에 유입되어 증발된 후 액기분리기의 잔여 기체와 혼합되어 압축되는 공정을 고안하여 특성을 해석하였다. 본 공정의 특성은 이젝터에서 등엔트로피 팽창 후 액체량의 증가로 냉동능력이 증가하고, 압축기에 유입되는 기체의 압력이 상승하게 되어 압축일이 감소함으로써 효율이 증가하게 된다. 냉매 R134a를 적용하는 냉장고 시스템과 본 고안 시스템을 비교한 결과, 이젝터에서 압력이 65% 저하될 때 COP는 27.8%가 증가된 최대값이 되었다. 다른 냉매의 경우 R401A가 75% 압력강하에서 40.1%의 COP 증가를 보였다. 이젝터의 디퓨져에서의 압력 상승율이 20%~60%까지 변화될 때, COP 증가율은 2.6%~3%로 영향이 매우 적었다.

Studies in liquid-vapor ejector, which performs a great efficiency in refrigeration cycle is highly concerned. This paper is based on basic refrigeration cycle and three ejector refrigeration cycles and the comparison and contrasts about when 6 different refrigerants are applied to such refrigeration cycles. All cycles had a percentage increase of COP from 4 to 74% when ejector was applied, and the source of increasement was the decrease of total work done due to ejector's pressure recovery function. When R-245fa is applied to cycle (d), results showed that COP was the most superior in such cycle, R-245fa showed high volume entrainment ratio in all cycles. Future studies in refrigeration cycles will require more knowledge and experiments on ejector's appliance to refrigeration cycles and the actuation of such functions.

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.

The aim of this paper is that studies on the characteristics of the liquid-gas ejector. Could get data about various model using numerical analysis. Compare and analyze result that get by an experiment and numerical analysis. And studied Characteristics of the ejector. In this paper, Numerical analysis model is gotten divided according to each Throat ratio as three types. Each throat ratio is 0, 4 and 7.5. According to the result that analyze basic model, pressure became lower causing the volume flow rate increase. In CFD studies, Fixed volume flow rate by these result and analyzed ejector performance. As a result, there was no change of pressure to Throat's Enterance, and pressure became low while pass the throat. Since, pressure recovered while passing diffuser. The outer flow velocity did not change greatly to change of volume flow rate. This research expects that is utilized to data for performance elevation hereafter.
