Description

A highly efficient, low pressure drop and mechanically sturdy steam separator was developed and tested. The separator was tested in an air-water loop and in a steam-water loop under prototypical conditions. The developmental effort is described and the experimental results are given. These separators have the highest known efficiency, and have a very large operational margin. (orig.)
