IBM-650 PROGRAM FOR THE MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF A MULTICOMPONENT CASCADE
A program has been written for the IBM-650 electronic computer to compute the performance of a three-component gaseous diffusion cascade. The assays are evaluated section-wise from the top of the cascade downward to the point where feed material is introduced into the cascade, and then from the bottom of the cascade upward to this feed point. Am interpolation scheme has been built into this procedure so that the concentration of U/sup 235/ at the bottom of the enricher portion of the cascade will match the specified assay of the feed materials to seven decimal places. By results obtained from this computer program, the behavior of U/sup 234/ or U/sup 236/ can be predicted, and the effects of the separation of U/sup 235/ from the other components in the cascade system can be seen.
