A vortex is made in the bowl that helps seperate the water from the
fuel. They work best at full flow as the suspended water has more time
spirling in the vortex and with it's higher specific gravity settles
fast, sort of like panning for gold if you can grab that
concept......

Well, almost....

A spin component in the fuel passing through a filter helps separate
heavier components, like water and dirt. The faster the flow rate,
the faster the spin.
That means the dwell time in the filter is SHORTER but more effective
for faster flow.
