Abstract

A typical embodiment of the invention is a steam drying device that has a frame with two recessed slipways spaced from each other. A first array of longitudinally disposed bars within the frame are spaced transversely from each other. The ends of the bars in this first array, moreover, are received within respective slipway recesses. There also is a second array of longitudinal bars, the ends of which are received in respective slipways, the bars in both arrays being transversely spaced from each other to enable the bars to remove water droplets from the steam.
