The equations for the best angles of inclination for maximum separation, maximum production rate and minimum column length in inclined flat‐plate thermal‐diffusion columns of the Frazier scheme, have been derived. Considerable improvement in performance is obtained when a Frazier scheme is operated at the best corresponding angle of inclination, especially for the schemes of high column number.
