A vessel wall cooperating with a circular array of moisture separators which have a vertical riser tube, centrally disposed hubs, a vertical baffle disposed between the hub and the riser tube, turning vanes and an outer volute partial skirt or wall to compress the steam-water mixture against the volute and vessel wall and utilize the downwardly spiraling flow of liquid film formed on the volute and vessel wall to effectively separate the entrained water from the steam and prevent reentrainment thereof.

A separator for separating entrained liquid from a gas-liquid mixture, said separator comprising a generally vertically oriented riser tube having a cap on the upper end and an inlet for said mixture on the lower end; said riser tube having an opening adjacent said cap and a generally vertically oriented planar baffle disposed within said riser tube; said planar baffle extending from one edge of said opening toward said central portion of said riser tube; and a vertically oriented generally curved wall disposed on the outer side of said riser tube, contiguous with said riser tube adjacent said opening, and spaced farther from said riser tube as said curved wall passes said opening and extends therebeyond; the contour extent and disposition of said curved wall being such that said mixture is compressed against said curved wall and remains contiguous therewith for a sufficient period to effectively separate and to prevent reentrainment of said liquid and said gas.
