Summary
| Description |
English: Gas centrifuge for uranium enrichment. At full speed there is practically vacuum near the axis, so that there is no leak at the feed-through and that the UF6 feed can easily flow in. The lower scoop, collecting the light fraction, also slows down the speed of the gas and thus reduces the radial pressure gradient. This facilitates exchange with the inner gas layer and stimultes the countercurrent. |
