A variant of the scheme of fractional separation of a gas mixture with the use of air-cooled settling tanks is suggested. Experimental verification of the use of the proposed scheme for fractional separation of a gas mixture consisting of uranium hexafluoride and hydrogen fluoride is carried out on a specially designed rig that simulates the technological process. The results of the experimental verification show the fundamental possibility of using the proposed scheme for fractional separation of a mixture of uranium hexafluoride and hydrogen fluoride.
