What
is a Centrifuge?
Centrifuges are machines
used in laboratories, medical facilities, and industries to separate suspended
material from the mediums they are mixed with. This is done
by spinning closed containers of the mixture very quickly around a
fixed, central point. The centrifugal force generated by this motion forces the
denser material in the suspension against the walls of the container,
effectively separating it from the solution. These devices are used to separate
solids from fluid suspension mediums.
How
They Work
The core principle
of centrifuge operation is centrifugal force. If a bucket half-filled
with water is spun quickly in a circle, over the head and back down to the
ground, centrifugal force created by the rotation of the bucket forces the
water towards the bottom. This is what keeps the water in the bucket even when
it's upside down.
Most centrifuges harness
this force in a similar way, and consist of a casing with a lid and a driven
central rotor. The rotor spins at high speed and the centrifugal force causes
any matter in the solution denser than the liquid to be forced against the
outer walls of the tubes, separating it from the fluid in the process.
