Final report on a research facility for critical point phenomena in microgravity

A conceptual design for a research facility for critical point phenomena in Spacelab's microgravity environment is presented. In the critical point facility (CPF) four experiments can be performed in parallel. The CPF consists of five parts: four experiment units and a service module. The experiment units offer the user-provided (instrumented)...

The NLR in the Netherlands renders scientific support and technical assistance for the design and operation of aircraft and spacecraft. The approach of NLR can be characterized by integration of experimental and theoretical investigations. For this an integrated computer and terminal network has been developed that links both NLR laboratory...
