Refrigeration cycle ejector power generator
10767910 · 2020-09-08 ·

Refrigeration cycle ejector power generator makes use of refrigerant in a refrigeration cycle to feed an ejector or injector within the refrigeration cycle causing the ejector to fire refrigerant at extremely high pressures and velocities into a turbine fan or blade that is sealed inside the refrigeration system and is connected to a generator in order to generate electricity. Refrigeration cycle ejector power generator comprises: a condenser, an expansion valve, an evaporator, a compressor, an ejector valve, a first ejector, a turbine, and a controller or computer. Refrigeration cycle ejector power generator is a refrigeration cycle with at least one ejector positioned in the refrigeration cycle that emits refrigerant at a high pressure and high velocity that is directed at a turbine, causing it to rotate, where this rotational energy may be used to turn a generator, thereby generating electricity.
