A study of flow in an ejector equipped with variable throat area

of the primary nozzle using CFD simulation
Nat Suvarnakuta1) Kraiwut Uthaikorn2) Thanarath Sriveerakul* 3) and Satha Aphornratana4)
Abstract
The aim of this research is to study a flow in an ejector equipped with variable throat area of the
primary nozzle. Using a CFD technique, flow phenomena, mixing structure and performance of the ejector
were analyzed and explained. In this study, a 2D-axisymetric model was used. Realizable k-epsilon model
was applied for a turbulence model. R141b was selected as a refrigerant fluid. Instead of changing the size of
the throat diameter, variation of throat area of the primary nozzle was achieved by changing a wedges
position. The wedges position or the needle tip position (NTP) is defined as a distance between a plane of
needles tip and a plane of the primary nozzles throat. Results show that altering the needle tip position (NTP)
affects the ejectors performance. For example, changing the NTP to 0, 5 and 10 mm., under the primary fluid
saturated temperature of 100 sC and the secondary fluid saturated temperature of 5 sC, the entrainment ratio
was subjected to increased from 0.24 to 0.30, and 0.52, respectively. While its critical back pressure (CBP)
trend to reduce from 120.1 kPa to 112.2 kPa and 84.5 kPa. The results of this study were verified with a CFD
simulation of a typical R141b ejector (Sriveerakul, 2008). A CFD simulation at 5 mm. of NTP presents a closest
CFD result to the typical ejector (the ejector without a wedge).
Keywords: Ejector, CFD, R141b
