Equations governing gas flow containing uranium hexafluoride and an inert carrier have been developed for mixtures typical of those used in aerodynamic isotope separation. In this report these equations are solved for a simple separation device (two-dimensional channel with external force). The numerical solutions are compared with the results obtained from direct simulation. Printed in the United States or America Available from National Technical Infor mation Serv ice U. S.
