Maximally optimized countercurrent gas centrifuge with the offset feeding point
摘要
Further improvement of industrial centrifuges requires a clear understanding on the interdependence of their optimal geometric, fluid dynamics, and separation parameters. The present article considers the theoretical optimization of contemporary high-speed countercurrent gas centrifuges for the separation of heavy isotopes. Within the framework of the refined radial averaging method, optimization problems for gas centrifuges with constant and axially profiled countercurrent are solved. The most optimal coordinate of the feeding point was determined offset from the known position to the waste.
