Steam ejector temperature profile

The entire concept of thermodynamics, the conversion of steam heat into steam velocity, can best be observed on a vacuum jet. Let s say I have 150-psig (10-BAR) saturated steam at 360°F flowing to the jet. As soon as the steam enters the ejector through the steam nozzle, the steam cools off to about 90°F. Don t take my word for it. Take your temperature gtm and see for yourself. What happened to the missing 270°F of the steam (360°F-90°F) It was converted to velocity  [Pg.243]

As the steam slows down through the diffusor portion of the jet, you would expect the steam to partially heat, back up. And it does, perhaps to 200°F to 250°F at the discharge of the jet (i.e., at the condenser) inlet. [Pg.243]
