摘要：This paper presents a novel method for ejector evaluation by developing a virtual nozzle, which provides the ejector’s maximum ability to overcome its back pressure and the minimum constant cross-section area based on two newly-derived evaluation indexes. The method was developed based on the assumption that the total energy and the ratio of dynamic enthalpy to total energy before normal shock of the virtual nozzle are the same as those of the real ejector. Under the condition that the initial state of the virtual nozzle is the same as that of the primary fluid of the ejector, two evaluation indexes, which include the relative pressure ratio and the relative area ratio, were derived to indicate the extent to which the ability to overcome back pressure and area demand deviate from the benchmark obtained from the virtual nozzle. Using the new method, the case studies of ejector evaluation were carried out involving with theoretical data of 13 refrigerants selected as working fluid of ejector and experimental data of four refrigerants. And the relationship between the two indexes was expressed by a high-accuracy fitting correlation equation that was validated by both theoretical calculation and experimental data and was found meaningful.
