Abstract
The theory of ideal cascades for the separation of isotopes has been reexamined for the case where the heads and tails separation factors of the elementary separating unit are not equal. Starting from basic isotope separation equations, a method for the calculation of flows and concentrations is described, which is applicable to an ideal cascade based on an elementary unit with any ratio between heads and tails separation factors. This method also serves to solve for any ideal cascade with any number of sidestreams.
