24-AT-05192 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Any moisture present in a steam flow outletting from a high pressure steam turbine and before that flow is passed to the inlet of a low pressure turbine, is removed by passing the flow through a high velocity separator, this separator being a type in which at entry thereto vanes cause vortex-like swirling of the steam flow so that moisture therein is centrifuged against an inner wall surface of a separator housing from thence being carried forward in flow direction to outlet from the housing via a skimmer slot in the housing wall located intermediate the housing ends. The steam flow from which the moisture has been separated, passes to an outlet end of the housing but before making its exit therefrom passes through straightening vanes which reorient the flow from vortex-like swirling to longitudinal straight line course thereof.
