Experimental Study on CO2 Booster Refrigeration System based on Multi Ejector and Parallel Compression
To address the limited energy efficiency of the CO

transcritical booster refrigeration system due to insufficient recovery of expansion work, this paper proposes a collaborative optimization scheme of multiple ejectors and parallel compression. An experimental system of a multi-ejector replacing the expansion valve and integrating parallel compressors was built, and the influence of parallel compression on system performance was compared under different ejector combinations. The results show that the liquid ejector plays a key role in the system performance, and the "one liquid ejector with three gas ejectors" mode yields the optimum system performance. Compared wit
h the expansion valve system, the maximum refrigeration capacity and COP of the system without parallel compression increased by 8.4%-11.2% and 15.3%-18.8%, respectively. After the introduction of parallel compression, the maximum refrigeration capacity and COP increased by 0.5%-13.9% and 4.6%-17.7%, and the power consumption decreased by 3.3%-4.3%, providing an experimental basis for the efficient optimization of the CO
