Abstract

The invention pertains to the field of jet technology and essentially relates to a method of operation including discharge of a motive liquid from a nozzle of a liquid-gas ejector, mixing of the motive liquid with an evacuated gaseous medium and simultaneous compression of the gaseous medium, collecting of the sprayed part of the motive liquid flow with further discharge of this collected liquid from the ejector by gravity or using a pumping action. This operational method for a liquid-gas ejector provides an increased efficiency factor for the ejector.
