The invention relates to a method for separating gas mixtures by means of an inventive gas centrifuge during which a compressible working fluid from an axial central supply tube (1) is introduced into the enlarging casing space (2) whereby passing through the flow channels (6) of the compression area (A) of a double-walled centrifuge rotor (3) and, in the axially distant area (B) inside the double tube, is guided in flow channels (6) having a constant flow cross-section (4) when in the centrifuged state. The flow of gas is separated into a specifically heavier and a specifically lighter gas fraction at a separating barrier (8) that is dependent on the individual gas volume portion. Inside the flow channels (6), the separated gas fractions are forcibly guided, slowed down and diverted in a separate manner with decreasing axial distance. The acceleration of the gas molecules in compression area (A) and the slowing down of the gas fractions in expansion area (C) ensue in a manner that is proportional to mass.
