Abstract
Rapid development of technologies for production of new materials may provide design of gas centrifuges (hereafter GC) with rotor speed above 1000 m/s. The question about efficiency of such GCs remains open. At present no experimental or theoretical studies regarding the separation effciency of such GCs exist. We present the results of calculations of the optimized separative power of the hyper-speed Iguassu GCs with a length of 1 to 5 meters and rotational speeds from 1000 to 1500 m/s. The calculations were performed in axisymmetric approximation in frameworks of the source-sink model. It is shown that for the hyper-speed GCs the optimized separative power, pressure at the rotor wall, feed flux and gas friction power linearly grow with the rotor length, while the temperature drop along the rotor does not depend on the rotor length.
