  • Patent number: 3989483
    Abstract: A method is provided for separating gaseous or vaporous substances, especially isotopes, with different molecular weights and/or different gas kinetic cross sections, in which the mixture of substances to be separated is passed through separation nozzles. One of more skimmer diaphragms project into the flow path of the substances and are used to separate and remove fractions of different compositions, and several separation systems consisting of nozzles and skimmer diaphragms are arranged in a cascade. The cascade generates partial streams which contain the mixture of substances to be separated. The partial streams can contain an additional gas with each partial stream containing different fractions of additional gas.
