    WHAT IS STEAM JET EJECTOR??
    An ejector is a type of vacuum pump or compressor. Since an ejector has
    no specific moving parts it is a low cost and low maintenance device
    used to compress gases, create vacuum and to transport granular solids to
    mix liquids or gases.
    Generally the motive fluid is steam so we also called them Steam Jet
    Ejector.

    WORKING PRINCIPLE
    An ejector works on the Bernoulli’s principle i.e ‘When the speed of
    fluid increases its pressure decreases and vice-versa’.
    In a steam jet ejector, the suction chamber is connected to the vessel or
    pipeline that is to be evaluated under vacuum. The gas that is to be
    induced into the suction chamber can be any fluid that is compatible with
    the steam and the component’s materials of construction.
    The steam nozzle discharge a high velocity jet across the suction
    chamber. The steam jet creates a vacuum which extracts air or gas from
    the adjoining vessel. As these gases are entrained in the steam, the
    mixture travels through the ejector into a venturi-shaped diffuser. In the
    diffuser, its velocity energy is converted into pressure energy, which
    helps to discharge the mixture against a predetermined back pressure,
    either to atmosphere or to a condenser.
    BERNOULLI’S THEOREM APPLICATION

    When fluid flow through pipe it has a specific rate of flow which can
    be identified by the equation of continuity :-
    P1v1A1 = p2v2A2
    P1 = pressure in Area1 ; v1 =velocity of fluid in part1 P2 =
    pressure in Area2 ; v2 =velocity of fluid in Area2
    P2 < P1 & P2 < Patm This low pressure area inside the suction
    chamber forces the fluid in the vessel to enter the chamber.
    Using Energy and mass balanve we finally get Bernoulli’s equation
    which is defined as :-
    pv 2
    + pgz + P=Constant
    2

    This explains decrease in pressure due to increase in velocity.

    SINGLE STAGE EJECTOR

    Single stage ejector are simple ejectors which are commonly used in
    industry. They are generally recommended for pressure from atm to
    3Hg.

    MULTI-STAGE EJECTOR
    Since the capacity of a single ejector is fixed by its dimensions, a
    single unit has practical limit on the total compression. For greater
    compression, two or more ejectors can be arranged in series. In a
    Multi-stage Ejector system, condensers are typically used between
    successive ejectors. By condensing the vapors before sending the
    stream on the next stage, the vapour load is reduced.

    MULTI-STAGE EJECTOR – WITH INTER-


    CONDENSER
    Intercondensers are used between successive ejector stages in a Multi-
    stage ejector system to reduce the vapour load on the succeeding
    stages. A typical system of steam jet ejector uses a direct-contact
    condenser or a surface condenser, typically a shell-and-tube heat
    exchanger.
    For optimal performance, direct-contact condenser must be installed
    upright and plumb. Shell-and-tube surface condensers may be
    installed either vertically or horizontally. The vapours to be
    condensed can be routed through either the inside or the outside of the
    tubes.
    The condenser must be installed to allow for complete condensate
    drainage. Mounting arrangements should take into account the weight
    of the condenser when it is fully flooded.

    OPERATING CHALLENGES
    Although the steam jet ejectors provide extremely reliable
    performance but they do require periodic maintenance to ensure the
    smooth working of systems.
    The major reasons for its decrease in optimal performance are due to
    the improper utilities, fouled condensers, mechanical damage,
    excessive process load, excessive non-condensable load or improper
    installation.
