ABSTRACT:
The apparatus comprises: (a) stacked bundles of parallel corrugated wafers (4) between which the liquid droplet charged gas or vapour is made to flow, said bundles being housed between panels (e.g. 1) which are welded round all their edges to a support structure so as to define a horizontal gas or vapour flow direction between adjacent wafers; (b) gutters (9, 10, 11) for collecting the liquid running down the wafers, each gutter being located below a bundle of wafers; and (c) liquid drain tubes (12, 13, 14) for draining away the liquid collected by the gutters. The lower edges of the wafers are notched in such a manner as to catch drops of liquid flowing along said lower edges and cause them to drop into the gutters rather than being entrained by the flow of the gas or vapour.
Such apparatus is used in separator-superheaters as used in power stations that generate electricity by expanding steam through turbines.
