LIQUID-GAS INTERFACE IN ZERO-G

Abstract

Efforts were made to study the behavior of a liquid-gas mixture in a zero-g field. Four experiment units were designed. Each unit houses a movie camera, so placed as to observe and record the interaction of air and water contained in a plastic cube during the 25-minute near-zero-g conditions present on an ICBM flight. Temperature and pressure changes are also recorded.
