title: Cross-axis synchronous flow-through coil planet centrifuge (type XLL). II. Speculation on the hydrodynamic mechanism in stationary phase retention.
abstract: The hydrodynamic mechanism involved in the retention of stationary phase in the present x-axis coil planet centrifuge system is discussed. A statistical treatment of the retention data disclosed important clues such as the effect of the inward-outward elution mode, the close correlation between the planetary motion and the head-tail elution mode, and the superior retention capacity of the left-handed coils. The combined effects of the radial and lateral centrifugal force field derived from the mathematical analysis of acceleration acting on the coil provide an explanation for the phenomena.
