Abstract | Renewable energy is a sustainable source of energy that never ends. Ejectors are reliable devices as they rely on solar energy to run. Ejectors can be used as an alternative to compressors in refrigeration systems or provide vacuum zones in various applications. Ejectors have no moving parts, compact, and stable operation. However, they have lower efficiency at the current time. There may be opportunities to improve ejector efficiency under some conditions and develop a thorough understanding of the impact of their design parameters. This paper presents the numerical simulations CFD study to investigate the effect of various design parameters on the flow structure inside an ejector. This was achieved by modelling a variable ejector geometry with the ideal gas flow. This is a CFD study with new approaches. The numerical model has been validated by conducting different meshing levels. Three mesh size has been suggested, and the medium size was considered. The results showed that the secondary inlet with a diameter of 90 mm resulted in a reduction with the generated vortices compared to the Model I result. Also, the effect of changing the diffuser throat to 45 mm in Model II, has shown improvement in reducing vortices. |
