A steam generator for generating a superheated fluid from a working fluid has a heat exchanger and a superheater. The generator has a housing 31 which defines a gas flow path having an inlet at one, upstream end thereof into which a stream of heated gas is delivered and an outlet at the other, downstream end thereof; and a steam generation module which is disposed within the gas flow path of the housing, the steam generation module comprising at least one heat exchanger unit (71, fig 5c) which receives a working fluid and is operative to raise the temperature of a working fluid to provide a saturated fluid, and a superheater unit (201, fig 5c) which receives the saturated fluid from the at least one heat exchanger unit and is operative to raise the temperature of the saturated fluid and provide a supersaturated fluid. |
