Abstract
A description is given of the construction of, and the technique of measuring separation effects in a single-stage thermal-diffusion apparatus. For the separation analysis, use is made of the dependence of the viscosity of gas mixtures on composition. Results are presented of a determination of the coefficient of thermal diffusion of a He/N2 mixture in the pressure range 0. 0005–0. 01 MN/m2.
