Abstract
A one-dimensional model of a short-path (molecular) distillation for t wo-component systems in the presence of an inert gas was developed bas ed on the weight-not-time-counter Direct Simulation Monte Carlo method . The effect of the composition of the test liquid, the evaporating te mperature, the condensing temperature, the distance between evaporator and condenser, the arrangement of distillation space, and the inert g as pressure on mass transfer and separation efficiency is discussed.
