A computer model of the existing and possible new USAEC gaseous diffusion plants (GDP) has been developed. The model has been combined with a nonlinear optimization method which permits optimum long range operating Plans to be generated. A description of the model is presented with examples of its use in simulation and in generation of optimal long range plans.
