Furthermore, a slope of the transmitting device relative to the force of gravity is determined at least once.

This axis can now be oriented differently relative to the terrestrial gravitational field.

Settling under the earth's gravity is therefore of low importance for perfusion systems.

They learn methods to determine the earth's gravitational field.

These figures relate to free sedimentation under gravity, i.e. without centrifuging.

Here, the respective angles between the longitudinal axis and the terrestrial gravitational field differ from one another in the configuration.

Here, the plummet 1 moves along the axis 3 essentially perpendicular to the terrestrial gravitational field.

Due to the presence of strong interparticle adhesion forces, which cannot be overcome by the forces of the flow in the gravity field of the earth, so-called canals are formed, through which the carrier gas stream passes ineffectively, without fluidizing the solid particles in the area affected.

Since the transmitting/receiving device 6 itself is attached, i.e., its orientation relative to the container 4 does not change, the slope angle measured at the second point in time results from the tilting of the container 4 or the ship 11 in relation to the field of gravity.

In one design, which is combined with the above or implemented separately, the slope of the transmitting device relative to the force of gravity is determined at a first point in time and at a second point in time.

In this case, therefore, a plane assumed to be aligned horizontally (such as a room ceiling) can then be used as an outer reference for the perpendicular direction, even if the latter actually deviates slightly from the vertical actually defined by the Earth's gravitational field (e.g. as a result of inaccuracies in the construction of the room ceiling, etc.).

In the actual measurement of the flow rate, the position of the plummet is determined at a second angle of the movement of the plummet relative to the terrestrial gravitational field.

The orientation here is vertical so that especially the plummet 1 executes movements along the axis 3 which runs in the direction of the terrestrial gravitational field.

If an alignment sensor 28 is included in each of the two sensing devices 10, 12, the position of left rail 6 and right rail 4 with respect to each other and to the Earth's gravitational field is able to be determined.

Sensing devices 10, 12, 14, and 16 each have at least one alignment sensor 28, by which the orientation of the respective sensing devices 10, 12, 14, 16 is determined with respect to the Earth's gravitational field.

An integrated position sensor, in particular an acceleration sensor, detects the orientation of the actuator with respect to the earth's gravitational field and can thus detect whether a backrest is upright or folded over.

The method for retaining and recirculating solids, more particularly cells, is carried out in the inclined channel solids separator through which flow passes, with solids-containing medium being fed in a continuous or batchwise manner to the inclined channel solids separator and solids-free medium being purged, with a flow rate permitting the preservation of laminar flow states as per Re<2300 prevailing, avoiding efficiency-reducing resuspension of the separated cells against the gravity field.

In a particular embodiment of the method, the separation area is formed by inclined channels and preferably a flow velocity prevails which permits the maintenance of laminar flow conditions in accordance with Re<2300, which avoids an efficiency-lowering resuspension of the deposited cells against the earth's gravitational field.

The conventional methods of achieving that objective are centrifugation, microfiltration and settling out under the earth's gravity.

Phase separation on the basis of the density difference requires very long residence times, as a result of which economical separation under the earth?s gravity is not possible.
