    摘要: A process and apparatus for separating a gas mixture comprising providing a slot in a gas separation channel (conceptualized as a laterally elongated Clusius-Dickel column), having a length through which a net cross-flow of the gas mixture may be established; applying a higher temperature to one side of the channel and a lower temperature on an opposite side of the channel thereby causing thermal-diffusion and buoyant-convection flow to occur in the slot; and establishing a net cross-flow of a gas mixture comprising at least one higher density gas component and at least one lower density gas component along the length of the slot, wherein the cross-flow causes, in combination with the convection flow, a spiraling flow in the slot; and wherein the spiral flow causes an increasing amount of separation of the higher density gas from the lower density gas along the length of the channel. The process may use one or more slots and/or channels.

    摘要: Isotopic hydrogen enrichment in a soluble metal is achieved through temperature gradient effects by applying a heat source and a heat sink to two spaced regions of the metal within which isotopic hydrogen atoms are absorbed and enclosed by a diffusion-barrier material. The temperature gradient so created forces the atoms of hydrogen in the hot region to migrate into the cold region, resulting in higher isotopic hydrogen density in the cold region. Discharge of the absorbed isotopic hydrogen is prevented effectively by the diffusion-barrier material.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for separation of an isotope mixture of hydrogen, sting predominantly in molecular form and/or inbound form, from the remaining components of a gas. A first chamber is separated from a second chamber by a wall which is permeable for atomic hydrogen and less permeable for molecular hydrogen. The hydrogen is converted into atomic hydrogen or, if necessary, is separated in atomic form from the material with which the hydrogen has gone into chemical composition. A device electrically operable independently of the wall is provided for converting the molecular and/or bound hydrogen to form atomic hydrogen in apparatus for this purpose. A heating device for elevating the temperature of thread, wire, or body of other form capable of being heated above 1500 K is provided and such thread, wire, or body is made of high-melting material, such as tungsten, iridium, osmium, or rhenium. The permeable wall of material differing from palladium consists of iron, steel or nickel as well as nickel-base alloys.
