Claim 0:
1. A rotor, comprising:
a first radially extending surface and a second radially extending surface spaced from the first surface in an axial direction;
an end wall extending in the axial direction between the first radially extending surface and the second radially extending surface;
at least one inlet and at least one outlet spaced radially outwardly of the at least one inlet;
at least one channel extending between the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet, the at least one channel having a first portion with a first cross sectional area; and
an expansion chamber in the at least one channel between the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet, the expansion chamber having a second cross sectional area greater than the first cross sectional area, a rate of expansion in cross sectional area being great enough to induce condensation.
