Choice of Fine Packing for Rectification of Uranium Hexafluoride

摘要

Coefficients are proposed for the Bain-Hougen equation for calculating the limit velocity of vapor in a column filled with fine packing for the rectification of metal hexafluorides and their mixtures. It is shown that a simple method of comparing different packings in terms of the kinetic and hydrodynamic parameters is possible by using the effective throughput per unit volume of the packing, equivalent to one transfer unit.
