Exergy Analysis of an Ejector Cooling System by Modified Gouy–Stodola Equation

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In this paper, exergy destruction analysis of a heat-assisted ejector cooling system has been carried out using a modified Gouy–Stodola equation. The modified Gouy–Stodola equation provides a more accurate and realistic irreversibility analysis of the system than the conventional Gouy–Stodola formulation. The coefficient of structural bond (CSB) analysis has also been executed to find the component whose operating variables affect the system’s total irreversibility at the most. Exergy analysis revealed that the maximum exergy loss happens in the ejector followed by the generator and condenser. The model predicted 40.84% of total irreversibility in the ejector at the designed conditions. However, total exergy destruction is found to be the most sensitive to the evaporator temperature. The CSB value of 12.97 is obtained in the evaporator using the modified exergy method. The generator appears to be the second sensitive component with the CSB value of 2.42, followed by the condenser with the CSB value of 1.628. The coefficient of performance of the system is found to be 0.18 at the designed conditions. The refrigerant R1234yf is considered in the system.
