Abstract:
The work performed was in the interest of developing condensing ejectors for application in space power systems. An analytical model for the flow processes within the condensing ejector was developed with initial use of a pipe flow correlation to predict heat and mass transfer. This analysis was programmed for a digital computer, and the performance characteristics of two ejectors determined. The mechanical design of these two ejectors was completed, and the first one completely fabricated for installation in the Air Force 50 KW potassium condensing loop located at the AF Aero Propulsion Laboratory. Instrumentation was specified for ejector tests, and test procedures established. The analysis was revised in preparation for development of a digital computer program for test data reduction. Although the proposed work program involved both analytical and experimental studies to develop condensing ejectors for application in space power systems, unanticipated termination of the program precluded experiments and the application of actual heat-and-mass-transfer correlations in the ejector design computer program.
