[0032] As described above, the separation base 2 is a single-end open groove structure, after installation, the opening of the separation base 2 is in close contact with the flow guide 1, so that the connection part of the two will not seep water or air leakage, the bottom surface of the separation base 2 is provided with a first spacing layer 21 and a second spacing layer 22, wherein the first spacing layer 21 and the second spacing layer 22 are both circular ring shapes, the first end (lower edge) of the first spacing layer 21 and the second spacing layer 22 is respectively in close contact with the bottom surface of the separation base 2, the second end (upper edge) of the first spacing layer 21 and the second spacing layer 22 is respectively in abutment with the flow guide 1, further, in some embodiments, one of the first spacing layer 21 and the second spacing layer 22 can also be in abutment with the flow guide 1, for example, only the second spacing layer 22 is in abutment with the flow guide 1, the second spacing layer 22 is arranged in the first spacing layer 21, the axis of the second spacing layer 22 and the axis of the first spacing layer 21 coincide, the first spacing layer 21 and the second spacing layer 22 will sequentially separate the gas-liquid separation cavity from outside to inside into a first water and liquid collecting area 23, a gas flow introduction area 24 and a second water and liquid collecting area 25, wherein the area between the first spacing layer 21 and the shell of the separation base 2 is the first water and liquid collecting area 23, the area between the first spacing layer 21 and the second spacing layer 22 is the gas flow introduction area 24, and the area surrounded by the second spacing layer 22 is the second water and liquid collecting area 25, wherein a gas flow inlet 211 is arranged at the tangent of the first spacing layer 21, that is, the opening direction of the gas flow inlet 211 is at a certain angle with the first spacing layer 21, so that the water-containing gas flow can enter the gas flow introduction area 24 in a tangential direction of the first spacing layer 21, and the water-containing gas flow can flow along the inner wall of the first spacing layer 21 and form a rotating gas flow in the gas flow introduction area 24, the gas flow inlet 211 is preferably arranged close to the bottom surface of the separation base 2;

[0041] In one embodiment, the first water vapor inlet 212 is arranged obliquely from bottom to top along the direction of the rotating air flow.
[0042] As mentioned above, the first water vapor inlet 212 is arranged obliquely from bottom to top along the rotating direction of the rotating air flow, so that the water can be thrown out of the first water vapor inlet 212 along the rotating centrifugal direction of the rotating air flow from bottom to top, which extends the centrifugal rotating track to a certain extent and increases the force of water throwing. In combination with the opening direction of the first water vapor inlet 212, the water vapor will not hit the side wall of the first water vapor inlet 212.
