ABSTRACT:
A low-profile vapor-liquid separator, such as a steam-water separator is described having an inlet opening for receiving a flow of a vapor-liquid mixture and an outlet opening for exhausting the flow of a vapor-liquid mixture after removal of the liquid. A passageway that extending longitudinally between the inlet opening and the outlet opening has a plurality of spinner blades that rotate the liquid to a slot in the wall for removal. The separator has an unobstructed passageway with few slots that increases rotation and centrifugal separation. Due to its efficiency it may be made much smaller than predecessor separators.
