Summary

The present study thermodynamically evaluated the ejector utilization's impact on the performance of the cascade cycle that uses CO2 and NH3 as refrigerants. The theoretical analysis on the functional features based on the first and second laws of the thermodynamics illustrates the facts that the maximum cop and the maximum second law efficiency are on average7 and 5 percent higher than the conventional cycle. However, the exergy destruction rates roughly 8 percent lower as compared to the conventional cycle. Therefore, the novel ejector-expansion cascade cycle is a promising refrigeration cycle from the thermodynamically and practical points of view. A linear regression through the terms of Teva, Tcond, ?T yields to three useful correlations for maximum COP, maximum second law efficiency, and in accordance with their optimal temperature.
