A small fluid junction with an uncertain roleA small multi-port connector from my microfluidics experiments. It may have been intended to separate air from ferrofluid, with a mixed stream entering and liquid leaving through another port. I do not yet recall its exact function.

Comparing pressure with liquid columnsManometers for ferrofluid experiments: instruments that indicate pressure through the height of a liquid column. I tried different tube diameters, including larger glass tubing and finer Tygon tubing, with blunt syringe-style fittings for connections.
