[0020] Working principle: raw steam enters the evaporator from the raw steam inlet, and exchanges heat with the raw water in the tube side in the shell side. The steam condensate generated after the heat exchange is discharged from the high-temperature steam condensate outlet 1, and then enters the heater from the high-temperature steam condensate inlet to heat the raw water. After heat exchange, it is discharged from the high-temperature steam condensate outlet 2, and then enters the shell side of the preheater. After heat exchange and cooling by the raw water, it is discharged from the steam condensate outlet; at the same time, the raw water enters the tube side of the preheater, and after being preheated by the steam condensate, it will enter the non-condensable gas separation device for separation of non-condensable gases. At this time, the steam in the high-temperature raw water will pass upward through the top filter structure, and slow down its upward movement speed when it contacts the vapor-liquid separation plate. In the process, the steam will condense and turn into steam condensate The water falls, and the non-condensable gas in it will continue to be discharged upward through the non-condensable gas discharge port and the non-condensable gas throttling controller. The high-temperature raw water flows down from the bottom filter structure and enters the hot raw water inlet 2 of the heater. It is further preheated by the high-temperature steam condensate in the heater and enters the evaporator from the hot raw water outlet 1. Heat exchange occurs with the raw steam in the shell side in the tube side. The generated secondary steam is discharged from the secondary steam outlet, and then enters the separator from the secondary steam inlet. It is spirally separated by the spiral plate vapor-liquid separation device and then discharged from the pure steam outlet. At the same time, the raw water that has not evaporated in the evaporator is discharged from the concentrated water outlet. At the same time, the condensed water separated by the separator is connected to the concentrated water of the evaporator from the condensed water outlet and then discharged outside the machine.

[0021] The present invention provides a new type of energy-saving and efficient pure steam generator for removing non-condensable gases. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. The present invention further heats the raw water by utilizing the high-temperature steam condensation of the heater, and then evaporates the raw water well through the live steam, thereby improving the evaporation effect, reducing the discharge of steam condensation, and reducing the steam consumption.

[0023] 2. The present invention transfers the heat of steam condensate to raw water through a preheater, and can cool the steam condensate at the same time, and discharge it out of the machine after cooling. At the same time, the raw water itself is preheated during the process of cooling the steam condensate, thereby realizing both the cooling of steam condensate and the preheating of raw water.

[0024] 3. The present invention connects the secondary steam inlet with the pure steam outlet through the spiral plate vapor-liquid separation channel. The secondary steam entering from the secondary steam inlet can be subjected to spiral vapor-liquid separation through the spiral plate vapor-liquid separation device to obtain pure steam, and then discharged from the pure steam outlet. Under the action of the centrifugal force of high-speed rotation, the separation factor can reach several hundred times the centrifugal force of gravity acceleration, and the tiny water droplets and mist in the secondary steam are centrifugally separated along the spiral tangent direction and thrown to the isolation cylinder wall, and then collected downward along the cylinder wall and discharged at the bottom of the separation chamber, thereby achieving a remarkably ideal separation effect.
