Zur Kaskadentheorie der Trennung polynärer Isotopengemische

Abstract

The theory of isotope separation in cascades is extended to polynary mixtures. Conditions for minimum reflux (maximum production) are derived. For square cascades, the general solution of the differential equations is indicated; a special solution is given for the important case of large reflux ratio. The enrichment of middle components in ternary mixtures is discussed, it is shown to be impractical in a single square cascade.
