Advanced exergy analyses of an ejector expansion transcritical CO2 refrigeration system

TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic investigation on an ejector expansion transcritical CO2 refrigeration system with advanced exergy analysis is presented, which shows that the compressor with the largest avoidable endogenous exergy destruction possesses the highest priority of improvement, followed by the ejector, evaporator and gas cooler.

A New Equation of State for Carbon Dioxide Covering the Fluid Region from the Triple‐Point Temperature to 1100 K at Pressures up to 800 MPa

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a new equation of state in the form of a fundamental equation explicit in the Helmholtz free energy, which is able to represent even the most accurate data to within their experimental uncertainty.

A 1-D analysis of ejector performance

TL;DR: In this paper, a 1D analysis for the prediction of ejector performance at critical-mode operation is carried out, where constant pressure mixing is assumed to occur inside the constant-area section of the ejector and the entrained flow at choking condition is analyzed.

Transcritical CO2 refrigeration cycle with ejector-expansion device

TL;DR: In this paper, an ejector expansion transcritical CO2 refrigeration cycle was proposed to improve the COP of the basic CO2 cycle by reducing the expansion process losses and a constant pressure mixing model for the ejector was established to perform the thermodynamic analysis.
