The Best Performance of Inclined Thermal-Diffusion Columns of the Frazier Scheme
The equations for the best angles of inclination for maximum separation, maximum production rate and minimum column length in inclined flat-plate thermal-diffusion columns of the Frazier scheme, have been derived. Considerable improvement in performance is obtained when a Frazier scheme is operated at the best corresponding angle of inclination, especially for the schemes of high column number.
