Abstract
Abstract An analysis of the effect of flow (or pressure) tapering on the productivity of step cascades, with account taken of the relations existing between the interstage flow rates, pressure levels and stage separation factors, revealed that productivity and separative work could increase by about 4% in a typical 3-size gaseous diffusion plant. A considerable gain could be expected by applying the tapering to sections comprising about 30 stages, into which each step would be divided. Further, an examination is made of the extent of reduction that can be expected of the mixing loss through flow tapering.
