Water-Oil Seperator Over the years I've thought about adding a weir to allow the centrifuge to be used as a separator to remove oil from water. The flat top rotor makes this modification easy to implement. This is a clear polycarbonate lid with a clear baffle/weir. The gap between the lid and the weir is about a quarter inch. This turned out to be a very interesting experiment. Not easily seen in the photos but it appears the oil is thicker near the top of the rotor vs. deeper in the rotor. It's always interesting to see how fluids continue to behave normally even while subjected to increased gravity.
