Abstract

The theory of the model Q-cascade is generalized for the case of presence of losses of working substance. Analytical solutions are obtained to determine the cascade parameters for specified rates of losses. Calculations to reveal the effect of the losses on the total and feed flows for given concentrations of a target component in the product and waste flows are carried out. The dependence of the total and feed flows on the losses for multi- and binary isotope mixtures is defined.
