Fluid Science

The Fluid Science Laboratory is a multi-user facility to study the dynamics of fluids in the absence of gravity. This allows investigations on fluid dynamic effects, phenomena that are normally masked by gravity driven convection, sedimentation, stratification and fluid static pressure. The Fluid Science Laboratory is a multi-user facility to study the dynamics of fluids in the absence of gravity. This allows investigations on fluid dynamic effects, phenomena that are normally masked by gravity driven convection, sedimentation, stratification and fluid static pressure. These effects include diffusion-controlled heat and mass transfer in crystallization processes, interfacial mass exchange, and simulation of geophysical fluid flows, emulsion stability and more.
