A Novel Pressure-Exchange Ejector Refrigeration System with Steam as the Refrigerant

美国乔治·华盛顿大学查尔斯·加里斯提出了利用一次流和二次流之间的非定常相互作用的新型流体力学过程来完成一种新型制冷方案所需的气相压缩。这项提议是对可持续环境技术目标的回应，因为它将在不使用大分子材料的情况下实现制冷目标。当然，这些材料如果释放到环境中，会产生有害的影响。这项调查还将建立在现有理解的基础上，它肯定会为与一次流和二次流相互作用有关的基本流体力学问题开辟道路。

AbstractCTS-9985624Charles Garris, George Washington UniversityThe PI has proposed to utilize an innovative fluid dynamics process involving the unsteady interaction between a primary and a secondary stream, to accomplish the required gas phase compression in a novel refrigeration scheme. This proposal is responsive to the Technology for a Sustainable Environment objective in that it will accomplish the refrigeration objectives without the use of large molecular weight materials. Such materials, of course, have a deleterious effect if released into the environment. The investigation will also build upon current understandings and it will certainly open avenues for fundamental fluid mechanics issues related to the interaction of the primary and the secondary streams.
