This article experimentally compares the characteristics of different refrigerants as the working fluid in an ejector cooling system. The study covers common refrigerants including R-113, R-114, R-142b, and R-718. The critical choking conditions against the variation of condenser back pressure, the evaporator pressure, and the generator pressure are determined for each refrigerant. The results are compiled into a convenient performance curve and COP chart. These results can serve as an important reference for future design of ejector cooling systems. Finally, this paper presents a comparison of the performances of different refrigerants in an ejector cooling system.
