Abstract
A thermal separator is provided using a mechanical distributor which is suitable for transforming a continuous supply of gas under pressure originating from a suitable source into a pulsed gas flow, in order to place under pulsatory operating conditions one or several operational receiving tubes connected to this distributor, the relative geometrical arrangement of the source, distributor and receiving tubes being such that the gas under pressure passes, during its passage through the distributor, in a direction which extends from the outside towards the inside of the distributor.
