The present disclosure provides an ejector nozzle and an ejector including the same. The ejector nozzle includes a first tube having a first flow path into which a fluid is introduced, and a second tube provided outside the first tube and having an inner diameter larger than an inner diameter of the first tube, the second tube defining a second flow path between the first tube and the second tube, in which the first tube further includes a communication port that penetrates the first tube to allow the first flow path to communicate with the second flow path and is openably and closable provided, and in which when the communication port is opened, a part of the fluid flowing in the first flow path is allowed to flow along the second flow path.

EJECTOR

An ejector includes a nozzle, a needle and a body. The nozzle reduces a pressure of a fluid and discharges the fluid as an injected fluid from a fluid injection port. The body includes a fluid suction port and a pressure increasing portion. The fluid suction port draws, as a suction fluid, a fluid from an outside of the body by using a suction force generated by the injected fluid. The pressure increasing portion increases a pressure of a mixture of the injected fluid and the suction fluid. The nozzle includes a throat portion and a nozzle-side tapered portion. The throat portion reduces a passage cross-sectional area of the fluid passage to be smallest in the fluid passage at the throat portion. The nozzle-side tapered portion expands the passage cross-sectional area of the fluid passage toward the downstream side in the flow direction of the fluid.
