Although the Earth's gravitational field is constant and relatively weak, there are different ways to implement force field programming in GFFF. Because hydrodynamic lift forces participate in the separation process in focusing (hyperlayer) elution mode, they can control the resulting force field acting on particles via changes of flow-velocity. In this work, these changes are accomplished with channels of non-constant cross-sections. Three trapezoidal channels of decreasing breadth and two channels of decreasing height (along the longitudinal axis) are tested as tools for optimization of the separation of a model silica gel particle mixture.
