A component for de-spinning a flow of dry vapor or gas and for separating liquid from the vapor or gas, said component including an outer vertical tube (4) for admission of a mixture of the vapor or gas and a liquid for separation which mixture is caused to spin and flow downwards. The component further comprises a coaxial inner tube (1) for collecting dry vapor or gas, provided with means (2) for de-spinning the flow of said dry vapor or gas, the lower edge of the outer tube being at a level lower than that of the upper edge of the inner tube. There are orifices formed in the periphery of the lower edge of the outer tube whose width decreases upwards, and parts for de-spinning the liquid which drops by gravity along the wall of the outer tube. Application to wet steam separators.
A component for de-spinning a flow of dry vapour or gas and for separating liquid from vapour or gas, said component including concentrically, in inverse order, an outer vertical tube for admission of the vapour or gas and liquid mixture to be separated and travelling in a downward spinning flow, a coaxial inner tube for collecting dry vapour or gas, and an inner sleeve, said inner and outer tubes being cylindrical of circular cross-section, means positioned between the inner tube and said inner sleeve for de-spinning the flow of said dry vapour or gas, the lower edge of the outer tube being separate from the inner tube and at a level lower than that of the upper edge, and said lower edge of said outer tube being provided with upwardly extending orifices circumferentially spaced on its periphery, whose width decreases upwards.
