This paper presents results of an experimental investigation of a steam jet refrigerator. The primary flow rate of the ejector is controlled by a spindle to provide fine tuning for ejector operation. Two nozzles with different lengths were designed and applied in the ejector. The effect of the spindle position on the performance of the ejector was assessed. The performance of ejector was investigated for various boiler temperatures and spindle positions using the two nozzles.
