Evaluation of a moisture removal device for turbine steam piping. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5705964
Moisture-induced erosion and corrosion of nuclear power plant steam pipes is a significant and costly maintenance problem. By removing moisture from steam leaving the high-pressure turbines, high-velocity moisture separators can minimize this damage in a vulnerable system and improve plant thermal performance.
