Obnašanje fluidov in mikrofluidne naprave v mikrogravitaciji

Sevnik, Val (author), Plazl, Igor (mentor)

Opis nizkogravitacijskega okolja in raziskovalnih platform, ki ga omogočajo. Predstavitev osnovnih fluidnih pojavov v mikrogravitaciji in kratka predstavitev mikrofluidike z osnovnim obnašanjem mikrofluidov. Na koncu sledi še pregled nekaterih mikrofluidnih naprav, ki se uporabljajo v vesolju in primerjava mikrogravitacijskega in mikrofluidnega okolja.

• Title: Behavior of fluids and microfluidic devices in microgravity

Abstract

In this paper a description of the low-gravity environment and the research platforms that enable it is presented. Furthermore, basic fluid phenomena in microgravity and short presentation of microfluidics with basic behavior of microfluids is disscused. Finally, an overview of some microfluidic devices used in space and a comparison of the microgravity and microfluidic environment is offered.
