Material Sciences Research in Rockets, Especially in the Fields of Fluid Physics and of Metallic Dispersions
Abstract
Ground and rocket experiments in fluid physics are reviewed. The shape of liquid interfaces, the liquid motion due to wetting and thermal interface convection, and diffusion growth and coagulation are considered. The impact of these effects on the separation of immiscible metallic alloys is discussed.
