Parallel Work of CO₂ Ejectors Installed in a Multi-Ejector Module of Refrigeration System

A performance analysis on of fixed ejectors installed in a multi-ejector module in a CO₂ refrigeration system is presented in this study. The serial and the parallel work of four fixed-geometry units that compose the multi-ejector pack was carried out. The executed numerical simulations were performed with the use of validated Homogeneous Equilibrium Model (HEM). The computational tool ejectorPL for typical transcritical parameters at the motive nozzle were used in all the tests. A wide range of the operating conditions for supermarket applications in three different European climate zones were taken into consideration. The obtained results present the high and stable performance of all the ejectors in the multi-ejector pack.
