Summary:A description is presented of the ANSYS Fluent-19.1 finite-element software program for a rigorous mathematical model to study the processes of separating steam moisture that occurs in the steam space of the PGV-1000M steam generator. Calculations of the pressure distribution in the steam space, velocity fields of the generated steam, trajectories of steam flow and the condensed moisture, and distribution of the concentration of moisture in the steam space were done, and conclusions were drawn based on analysis of the obtained results and a suggestions for a methodology for further study of the issue.
