Abstract
A gas-liquid separator includes an inlet pipe and an inner pipe. The inlet pipe includes a swirling flow generating member therewithin, and a first drain port through which the liquid exits. The inner pipe includes an opening at an end which is inserted into an end of the inlet pipe. The swirling flow generating member includes a vane supporting portion extending along an axis line of the inlet pipe, and stator vanes provided on an outer circumferential surface of the vane supporting portion. The vane supporting portion has a conical shape whose diameter gradually increases from a fluid entering side to a fluid exiting side of the gas-liquid two-phase fluid. The stator vanes surround the outer circumference with inclining relative to the axis line of the inlet pipe.
