2. Jiggle syphon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiggle_syphon

   The chamber is somewhat wider than the pipe, and narrows to approximately the pipe diameter at both ends. One end attaches to the pipe, the other end is open to the liquid. Within the chamber is a sphere, denser than the liquid to be pumped, small enough to move freely within the chamber but large enough to not be able to leave the chamber. [1]

3. Siphon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon

   Siphon principle In the flying-droplet siphon, surface tension pulls the stream of liquid into separate droplets inside of a sealed air-filled chamber, preventing the liquid going down from having contact with the liquid going up, and thereby preventing liquid tensile strength from pulling the liquid up. It also demonstrates that the effect of ...

4. Thermosiphon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosiphon

   A wick is not needed in a thermosiphon because gravity moves the liquid. [4] The wick allows heat pipes to transfer heat when there is no gravity, which is useful in space. A thermosiphon is "simpler" than a heat pipe. [5] (Single-phase) thermosiphons can only transfer heat "upward", or away from the acceleration vector.

5. Soxhlet extractor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soxhlet_extractor

   A Soxhlet extractor has three main sections: a percolator (boiler and reflux) which circulates the solvent, a thimble (usually made of thick filter paper) which retains the solid to be extracted, and a siphon mechanism, which periodically empties the condensed solvent from the thimble back into the percolator.

6. Shaker (laboratory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaker_(laboratory)

   A shaker is a piece of laboratory equipment used to mix, blend, or agitate substances in a tube or flask by shaking them. It is mainly used in the fields of chemistry and biology . A shaker contains an oscillating board that is used to place the flasks, beakers , or test tubes.

7. Siphon tubes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon_tubes

   Siphon tubes are a basic implement used in irrigation to transfer water over a barrier (such as the bank of a raised irrigation canal), using the siphon principle. At the simplest they consist of a pipe with no working parts. To work they rely on the water level in the canal being at a higher level than the water level in the field being irrigated.

8. Water level (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_level_(device)

   A surfactant (surface active agent), such as hand-dishwashing liquid detergent, can be added to the water to significantly lower the surface tension of the water. This liquid solution will flow more easily and more rapidly in the tube than plain water, so operation of the device will be more precise, repeatable, and responsive – particularly ...

9. Erlenmeyer flask - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erlenmeyer_flask

   The shaking frequency has the most significant impact on oxygen transfer. [10] Oxygenation and mixing of liquid cultures further depend on rotation of the liquid "in-phase", meaning the synchronous movement of the liquid with the shaker table. Under certain conditions the shaking process leads to a breakdown of liquid motion – called "out-of ...
