Abstract
The invention relates to a pump and refrigeration system including an evaporator (3) from which refrigerant vapour is withdrawn by an absorber (4) and absorbent is recharged by a generator (1). Further, a condenser (2) is provided between the generator (1) and the evaporator (3) so that refrigerant vapour from the generator (1) can be condensed prior to being returned to the evaporator (3). In addition, the system is provided with an ejector (8) which is positioned downstream of the evaporator (3) so as to withdraw refrigerant vapour from same and upstream of the condenser (2) so that said withdrawn refrigerant vapour passes through the ejector (8) to the condenser (2). Thus in the system of the invention both an absorber (4) and ejector (8) withdraw refrigerant vapour from the evaporator (3) thus enhancing the efficiency of the system and further refrigerant vapour passing through the ejector (8) is delivered directly to a condenser (2) thus reducing the burden on the absorber (4).
Claims
1. A heat pump and refrigeration system comprising; a generator for producing heat to power the system; a condenser for rejecting heat from the system; an evaporator for effecting heat exchange with an environment; an absorber for extracting refrigerant vapour from the evaporator; and an ejector for extracting refrigerant vapour from said evaporator characterized in that; the ejector is positioned downstream of the evaporator and upstream of the condenser so that refrigerant vapour extracted from said evaporator by the ejector, passes through the ejector, before being delivered to the condenser.
2. A system according to Claim 1 wherein the ejector is further positioned downstream of the generator so that refrigerant vapour issuing from the generator passes through the ejector and so brings about entrainment of refrigerant vapour from the evaporator.
3. A system according to Claim 1 or 2 wherein a circuit is created so that all refrigerant vapour passes through the evaporator and then a fraction of that vapour leaves the evaporator and passes to the ejector and the remaining fraction leaves the evaporator and passes to the absorber.
4. A system according to any preceding Claim wherein there is further provided a separator positioned between the generator and the absorber so that absorbent returning from the generator to the absorber passes through the separator and so releases refrigerant vapour.
5. A system according to Claim 4 wherein said separator is in fluid connection with said condenser so that said refrigerant vapour yield by the absorbent passes from the separator to the condenser.
6. A system according to any preceding Claim wherein there is further provided an ejector-economiser which is positioned downstream of the ejector and which is provided with a feed-line which draws absorbent from the absorber to the economiser and then delivers the absorbent, after passage through the economiser, to the generator.
7. A system according to Claim 6 wherein the feed-line is provided downstream of the absorber so that absorbent leaving the absorber on its way to the generator is in part diverted so as to pass through the economiser.
