Résumé : |
An experimental refrigeration system based on a two-stage steam ejector was set-up in the Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer Laboratory of our Department. The system optimization and realization have been described elsewhere ( [Grazzini and Mariani, 1998] and [Grazzini and Rocchetti, 2008] ). In both stages, primary flows are highly supersonic and reach low pressure and temperature levels. As usual in the literature, an ideal gas model was used during the design process. This paper is intended to check the validity of this assumption. In order to understand the actual working condition of our system, several models have been compared. The presence of high flow speed suggests the existence of metastable conditions. To set the border for the metastable region, the spinodal curve has been drawn. Isentropic expansion of vapour through the nozzle, modelled as ideal gas, seems well within the metastable zone. However, the Classic Nucleation Theory shows that the Wilson line is crossed at the nozzle throat. Condensation produces a marked difference in the conditions at the nozzle exit. Results coming from the present analysis will be used in further optimization of the experimental ejector design. |
