Substantiv
centrifuge - A device in which a mixture of denser and lighter materials normally dispersed in a liquid is separated by being spun about a central axis at high speed.
centrifuge - An apparatus in which humans are spun to simulate acceleration in an aircraft or spacecraft.
Verb
centrifuge - To rotate something in a centrifuge in order to separate its constituents.

A centrifuge is a piece of equipment, generally driven by an electric motor (some older models were spun by hand), that puts an object in rotation around a fixed axis, applying a force perpendicular to the axis. The centrifuge works using the sedimentation principle, where the centripetal acceleration causes more dense substances to separate out along the radial direction (the bottom of the tube). By the same token, lighter objects will tend to move to the top (of the tube; in the rotating picture, move to the centre).

centrifuge
A device in which a mixture of denser and lighter materials (normally dispersed in a liquid) is separated by being spun about a central axis at high speed.
