Research Abstract |
Not only itself has unique such as a fluid with zero viscosity and zero entropy or the high thermal conductivity, but also superfluid helium (He II) has a very unique characteristic in the boiling. Many studies were conducted about film boiling in He II, but cannot say until now that the unique was understood all. Rather it is the present conditions that the phenomenon that is new by becoming it the use of high sensitivity sensor and the visualization technology in cryogenic temperature is discovered. In this study, in order to understand he gravity effect of boiling phenomena in He II, the experiments and its analysis were carried out by optical visualization with high-speed video camera under microgravity condition. It was suggested that the contribution of the thermal diffusion by the film boiling to a liquid phase in superfluid helium was larger than the contribution of the thermal diffusion to a gas phase in normal fluid helium.
