This paper presents progress of evaluation existing ejector of previous work with different gases, included real gas. This work was done by the Ansys simulation tool. The paper also discussed about the two solvers used for simulating real gas difluoromethane (R32). The results showed that entrainment ratios are almost not influenced by different gases but by the working conditions. Secondly, the solver pressure-based can obtain comparable results with the density-based one, while it is much more stable and solution converges faster than the density-based.
Key words: difluoromethane / real gas / ejector / entrainment ratio / pressure-based / density-based
