Abstract
A centrifuge includes a container and at least one drive for rotating the container about its own axis and revolving the container about an axis of revolution and through a plane of revolution. At least one conduit extends from the container to a first or second side of the plane of revolution. The direction of rotation of the container is according to the left hand rule if the conduit extends to the first side of the plane of rotation, and according to the right hand rule if the conduit extends to the second side of the plane of rotation. The frequency of the container rotation is equal to the frequency of the container revolution. A centrifugal separator and a method for centrifuging a liquid are also disclosed. The invention provides for continuous centrifugation while prevent conduits into the container from getting tangled.
