| 20090232665 | Ejector - An ejector includes a nozzle for decompressing a fluid in any one state of a gas-liquid state, a liquid state and a super-critical state, and a body portion having a fluid suction port and a mixing and pressurizing portion. The ejector is provided with a suction passage through which a fluid drawn from the fluid suction port flows into the mixing and pressurizing portion. The suction passage is changed such that the fluid drawn from the fluid suction port is decompressed in the suction passage in iso-entropy. Alternatively, the suction passage is changed such that a flow velocity of the fluid flowing into the mixing and pressurizing portion from the suction passage is substantially equal to a flow velocity of the fluid flowing from a jet port of the nozzle into the mixing and pressurizing portion, or is equal to or larger than the sound velocity. | 09-17-2009 |
| 20090297367 | Ejector and manufacturing method thereof - A housing is configured into a tubular form and receives at least a portion of an ejector functional unit, which includes a nozzle and a body. A housing side opening radially penetrates through an outer peripheral wall surface and an inner peripheral wall surface of the housing and communicates with the fluid suction opening of the body. The housing side opening is adapted to join with a suction opening side external device, through which the fluid is drawn into the fluid suction opening. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100175422 | Evaporator unit - In an evaporator unit, a first evaporator is coupled to an ejector to evaporate refrigerant flowing out of the ejector, a second evaporator is coupled to a refrigerant suction port of the ejector to evaporate the refrigerant to be drawn into the refrigerant suction port, a flow amount distributor is located to adjust a flow amount of the refrigerant distributed to the nozzle portion and a flow amount of the refrigerant distributed to the second evaporator, and a throttle mechanism is provided between the flow amount distributor and the second evaporator to decompress the refrigerant flowing into the second evaporator. The flow amount distributor is adapted as a gas-liquid separation portion and as a refrigerant distribution portion for distributing separated refrigerant into the nozzle portion and the second evaporator. Furthermore, the flow amount distributor and the ejector are arranged in line in a longitudinal direction of the ejector. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20110061423 | Ejector - In an ejector, a refrigerant passage of a nozzle for decompressing and expanding refrigerant includes a throat portion in which a refrigerant passage sectional area is most reduced, a first taper portion arranged downstream of the throat portion to gradually enlarge the refrigerant passage sectional area, a second taper portion arranged downstream of the first taper portion to gradually enlarge the refrigerant passage sectional area, and an end taper portion arranged in a range from an outlet side of the second taper portion to a refrigerant jet port to gradually enlarge the refrigerant passage sectional area. Furthermore, a second expanding angle at the outlet side of the second taper portion is larger than the first expanding angle at the outlet side of the first taper portion, and an end expanding angle at the outlet side of the end taper portion is smaller than the second expanding angle. | 03-17-2011 |
