Abstract In free-flow electrophoresis, the stability and reproducibility of the flow field are prerequisites for a satisfactory separation. Due to the presence of the species to be separated and due to mass- and heat-transfer phenomena, non-uniformities in density inevitably appear, both within the carrier buffer and between the carrier buffer and the sample stream. On earth they give rise to buoyancy-driven convection which interferes with the separation. These effects have been quantified by numerical modelling. Agreement has been found between the numerical results and experimental observations.
