A Centrifuge Swing-out Rotor is a part of a centrifuge which attaches to the motor and holds the sample tubes. A swing-out, as opposed to a Fixed Angle rotor, has holders that move from vertical to horizontal as the centrifuge speeds up.
The word rotor is used to refer to a rotating part of a machine. It is also a palindrome.
a ROTOR is basically any part of a machine that rotates. eg the armature in a motor a STATOR is the part of a machine that is stationary. ie the ROTOR revolves within the STATOR
Some helicopter main rotor blades spin at roughly 185 rpm and extend out up to 20 ft so your question is subjective to the helicopter you are speaking of.
When a large turbine rotor stops it will still be hot and will tend to bend in the middle if left to cool normally. To prevent this the barring gear will turn the rotor slightly at given intervals during the cool down period.
The thrust pads will be there at the front or non drive end of the turbine side....These are usually used to limit the axial displacement of the rotor( Means to minimize the movement of rotor axially in order to maintain the axial clearance between the moving blades and the fixed blades of steam turbine rotor).....
A centrifuge has holes to insert the centrifuge tubes in, a cap to secure the tubes inside, and a lid to protect both the samples and experimenter in case of malfunction. There is also typically a way to set the centrifuge speed and a power switch to turn the centrifuge on and off.
It depends on the size of your rotor g=(1.118x10^-5)xradius of rotor in cm x speed of centrifuge in rev/min^2
To build a centrifuge you first need to decide what G force you need to generate. This is a function of the distance that the unit to be centrifuged is from the center axis and the rotational frequency (RPM). A major difficult you might run into is balancing the unit you make. The basic components of a centrifuge are the motor, case, rotor, and shield. The rotor holds the tubes, the case holds the motor in place and is a sturdy base, the shield protects you from any debri that could be thrown from an unbalanced rotor. If you MUST build a centrifuge you will need to learn to machine an accurate and balanced rotor. You are really just better off buying one. If you are in search of a cheap and simple centrifuge for playing with, use some tubing and an egg beater like these students did: http://www.rsc.org/delivery/_ArticleLinking/DisplayHTMLArticleforfree.cfm?JournalCode=LC&Year=2008&ManuscriptID=b809830c&Iss=Advance_Article
The basic parts of a centrifuge include the rotor, which holds the samples and spins them at high speeds, the motor, which drives the rotor to create centrifugal force, and the control system, which allows for setting speed and time parameters. Additionally, centrifuges often have safety features such as lid locks and imbalance detection systems.
The relationship between revolutions per minute (RPM) and relative centrifugal force (xg) is: g = (1.118 × 10-5) R S2 where g is the relative centrifugal force, R is the radius of the rotor in centimeters, and S is the speed of the centrifuge in revolutions per minute. You can use this for any centrifuge, just measure the radius of the rotor from the center to outer edge.
Centrifuges are typically made of stainless steel or aluminum because of their durability and resistance to corrosion. The rotor, where samples are placed for spinning, is often made of lightweight but strong materials like titanium or carbon fiber to withstand high speeds. The housing of the centrifuge is commonly made of plastic or metal to contain the rotor and ensure safety during operation.
Antonin Prandtl, however Gustof de Laval invented the first "Modern" centrifuge. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifuge
centrifuge is a system which is used to separate the water from the diesel.
A centrifuge is used for separating components in a liquid that have different weights.
A good centrifuge, such as the Eppendorf 5702 Series, will cost you upwards of $2,000.
G-force (acceleration due to gravity) is a measure of the force applied to particles in a centrifuge, while RPM (revolutions per minute) is a measure of how fast the rotor of the centrifuge is spinning. The relationship between g and RPM depends on the rotor size and radius. RPM alone doesn't provide information on the actual force being applied to the particles, which is why g-force is often used as a more reliable measure in centrifugation.
