Abstract

In this study, an experimental study of thermocapillary flow in a floating zone configuration is investigated by flow visualization and temperature measurements. A vertical liquid column is heated by top copper rod to generate predominantly thermocapillary flow. Flow and temperature oscillations are observed under certain conditions using 5 cSt silicone oil as the test fluid. The critical temperature differences are measured for various conditions and the flow patterns are observed by a microscope system.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, esnek bölge konfıgürasyonunun yüzey gerilimli akış hareketinin deneysel bir çalışması sıcaklık ölçümleri ve akış görüntüleri kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Hakim olan yüzey gerilimli akış hareketinin meydana gelmesi için üst bakır çubuk tarafından dikey konumdaki akışkan kolonu ısıtılmıştır. Deney akışkanı olarak 5 cSt silikon yağı kullanılarak bazı şartlar altında akış ve sıcaklık osilasyonları gözlenmiştir. Değişen şartlar için kritik sıcaklık farkları ölçülmüş ve mikroskop sistemi sayesinde akış şekilleri gözlenmiştir.
