In this paper, supersonic pressure-exchange ejectors were studied through numerical analysis, CFD modelling. The critical role played by the geometry on ejector performance was clearly established. CFD simulations (3D) are capable of predicting all trends in the performance curves. Results show the effect that non-steady flow can achieve over the steady flow ejector.

This paper will explain the structure of the flow induction in a non-steady supersonic fluid in which steam is the working fluid. The ratio of the throat diameter is varied and the analyses related to the induction processes are studied. This ejector is used for compression applications. The work to be presented herein is a Computational Fluid Dynamics investigation of the complex fluid mechanisms that occur inside a non-steady, three-dimensional, steam supersonic pressure exchange ejector, specifically with regard to the pressure exchange mechanisms and the induction processes between a primary fluid and a secondary fluid and how this is related to the shape of the aerodynamic shroud-diffuser surface. The results will show the correct throat diameter ratio that is capable of producing the desire affect of the flow induction in a three-dimensional supersonic, non-steady, viscous flow. The calculated throat diameter ration is about 2.90.
