重水 (D2O) 乃核分離反應器中最適用之緩衝劑及冷劑,而重氫(D)則為不久將來將發展出之核融合反應的燃料。本文探討從水同位素混合物(H2O-HDO-D2O)中提煉,並預測與討論同位素混合物中各成分之分離度。 Heavy water (D2O) is the most feasible moderator and coolant in nuclear-fission reactors while deuterium (D) will be the nuclear fuel for thermonuclear fusion in the distant future. The enrichment of D2O and HDO from the H2O-HDO-D2O system by thermal diffusion has been investigated. The degrees of separation for each component of water-isotope mixtures in thermal diffusion columns are predicted and discussed.
