Description/Abstract:
Construction was undertaken in the summer of 1942 of a pilot centrifuge plant for separation of process gas. The original plan called for the installation of 24 machines which would be operated approximately as a section of a large plant cascade, the primary purpose being to work out the process control problems arising from multimachine operation.
