PAGE PAGE 1 外文文献 Ejector refrigeration systems have long been an attractive research subject for a lot of researchers due to being heat- driven systems and having simple designs. Two importan drawbacks of these systems are primarily being refrigeration systems with low COP and using mechanically driven pumps. If the two disadvantages could be eliminated, especially the first one, the systems could find a wide area of application in air-conditioning and refrigeration industries. To produce a cooling effect, such heat-driven refrigeration systems could use low-grade energy sources, which are widely available and have low-cost such as solar and geothermal energy and waste heat. If the liquid pumps used in these systems could be ther- mally driven or an ejector refrigeration system without the pump could be developed, then the systems will be indepen- dent of electrical energy. In addition, the problems dealing with the operation of the pump and some additional devices coming with the pump will be eliminated. As expected, recent researches on the ejector refrigeration systems have focused on the improvement of energy conversion performance of these systems. Studies carried out to increase their efficien- cies are generally on a better design of ejector, the selection of a proper refrigerant, the optimization of operating condi- tions and the addition of various (secondary) devices such as a pre-cooler and regenerator to the refrigeration cycle. Scien- tists have densely studied on these research subjects for sev- eral decades and have achieved a significant improvement in the coefficient of performance of the systems using one or more methods Chang and Chen (2000) used a petal nozzle to enhance the performance of a steam-jet refrigeration system. According to their experimental results, when the system is operated at larger area ratios, the performance of system with a petal noz- zle is better than that with a conical nozzle. It is an attractive subject to develop
