Summary

A computer simulation of a vapour jet refrigeration system is carried out using a one-dimensional model based on mass, momentum and energy balances. The simulated performance is in good agreement with the available experimental results. A comparison of system performance is carried out for the same ejector geometry using the environmentally friendly working fluids R123, R134a, R152a and R717. The entrainment ratio and the system efficiency (COP) depend mainly on the ejector geometry and the compression ratio.
