+Steam Jet Ejector
+================================
+This Steam Jet Ejector unit model:
+   * Simulates the performance of a steam jet ejector for thermal vapor compression.
+   * Uses semi-empirical correlations for entrainment ratio, pressure correction factor (PCF), and temperature correction factor (TCF), based on El-Dessouky (1997).
+   * Operates in steady-state only.
+   * Assumes the discharge mixture pressure equals its saturation pressure.

+
+Degrees of Freedom
+-------------------
+In addition to the inlet state variables (i.e., temperature, pressure, and component flowrates for motive steam and entrained vapor), the Steam Ejector model has at least 1 degree of freedom that must be fixed for the unit to be fully specified. Typically, the following variables are fixed:
+
+    * Entrainment ratio
+    * Compression ratio
+
+Model Structure
+------------------
+This Steam Ejector model consists of state blocks for the properties of the motive steam inlet, entrained vapor inlet, and discharge mixture. It incorporates semi-empirical equations to model key performance parameters.
