【Abstract】 Following many years of ground-based studies, an experiment on drop thermocapillary migration at large Marangoni numbers was conducted on board China′s spacecraft SZ-4. In the experiment FC-75 fluorinert liquid and 5cst silicone oil were used as the drop phase and continuous phase, respectively. The behavior of drop migration at Marangoni numbers as high as 5500 was investigated under different temperature gradients in a long, stable microgravity environment. The experimental results show a notable deviation from the predictions given by the YGB model and other numerical solutions, which implies a complex behavior for the drop migration at large Marangoni numbers. The experimental setup, procedure and main experimental results are reported, and the drop migration behavior is discussed.更多还原
