✦ Synopsis

In thiv puper the formulae necessary for rectifbation calculations on complex mixtures are summarized and developed for numerical computation. These formulae involve the ccmputation of improper integrals for which a method of calculation ls developed. A numerical example iq comddered in some deetail since these calculations are not of a routine nature. The ralculutionx were carried out in the I.B.M. 602 A. Calculating Punch. The plate by plate method iv alao considered.

An approximate yet standard procedure, the perturbation method, is used to solve analytically the equation for the steafiy state fractionation of multicomponent and complex mixtures in non-ideal cascades. It is shown that the formulae are easily adaptable to numerical evaluation. The perturbation m
