Schematic illustration of the spiral operational concept with demonstration of Dean vortices and equilibrium position of different size particles (top) rectangular spiral channel with centered core of Dean vortices, (bottom) trapezoidal spiral channel with Dean vortices cores shifted towards the outer wall of the spiral channel, as a result, the equilibrium position of small particles is shifted for better separation efficiency.
