Valeria,

  Thanks for the additional information. I'm afraid I am not aware of 
such a component but I will certainly put it on our list of components 
that would be interesting to write. If you find (or already have) any 
papers that discuss the dynamics and performance of steam ejectors, I'd 
certainly be interested in reading them.

kind regards,

  David
