Low-pressure ejectors: prediction of performance by computational fluid dynamics.
Author(s) : SMITH S. J., RIFFAT S. B., WU S., EAMES I.
Type of article: Article
Summary
This note shows that low-pressure ejectors depend strongly on geometry. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)can predict their performance accurately whether there is good positive entrainment or back pressure resulting in negative entrainment. It is concluded that CFD is a useful tool for designing low-pressure ejectors.
