DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
[0022] Embodiment 1:
[0023] As Figures 1-3As shown: The system includes an outer shell 10, inside which is a hollow outer cylinder 7. An outlet pipe 1 and a drain pipe 9 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the outer cylinder 7, respectively. The outlet pipe 1 and drain pipe 9 are fixedly fitted onto the top and bottom surfaces of the outer shell 10 and extend to the outside of the outer shell 10. A hollow inner cylinder 5 with an open bottom is fixedly fitted onto the inner wall of the top of the outer cylinder 7. A spiral blade 4 is fixedly fitted onto the inner wall of the inner cylinder 5. A guide pipe 6, connected to the outlet pipe 1, is fixedly installed in the middle of the top surface inside the outer cylinder 7. The guide pipe 6 is hollow and open at both the top and bottom. A first inlet pipe 2 and a second inlet pipe 3 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the outlet pipe 1. The first inlet pipe 2 communicates with the cavity between the guide pipe 6 and the inner cylinder 5, and the second inlet pipe 3 communicates with the inner cavity of the inner cylinder 5. A water vapor baffle 11 is provided below the guide pipe 6. The inner cavity of the outer cylinder 7, located below the water vapor baffle 11, is a water storage chamber 12. Solenoid valves are installed on the air outlet pipe 1, the first air inlet pipe 2, the second air inlet pipe 3, and the drain pipe 9. The inner wall of the outer shell 10 and the outer wall of the outer cylinder 7 are filled with thermal insulation material 8. The water vapor baffle 11 is umbrella-shaped and is fixedly fitted on the inner wall of the outer cylinder 7. A drain outlet is provided through the edge of the top surface of the outer cylinder 7. The first air inlet pipe 2 is connected to the cavity between the air guide pipe 6 and the inner cylinder 5, and the second air inlet pipe 3 is connected to the inner cavity of the inner cylinder 5. This arrangement allows for timely adjustment of the steam flow path inside the outer shell 10 when the steam flow in the air outlet pipe 1 is obstructed, and closes the solenoid valve on the drain pipe 9 to prevent water from being discharged from the water storage chamber 12. This increases the air pressure inside the outer cylinder 7 and ensures smooth steam flow in the air outlet pipe 1.

A detection probe 14 is installed on the side wall of the vent pipe 1, and the detection end of the detection probe 14 extends into the interior of the vent pipe 1. The detection probe 14 is a temperature and humidity detection probe. By monitoring the liquid level inside the water storage chamber 12 through the liquid level probe 13, the situation where the liquid level in the water storage chamber 12 is too high can be avoided, which would reduce the water vapor separation effect. By detecting the temperature and humidity of the steam passing through the vent pipe 1 through the detection probe 14, the water vapor separation effect can be detected in a timely manner.
