Marangoni Experiment  Experimental data (temperature, cooling disk position etc.) monitored by MS and FPEF (downlinked to ground via Fluid Physics Experiment Facility (FPEF))  Video Images taken by MS and FPEF (downlinked to ground via Image Processing Unit (IPU), and IPU VRU Disk will be returned to ground)  Microgravity environment data taken by Microgravity Measurement Apparatus (MMA). (downlinked to ground via Image Processing Unit (IPU)) Onboard Outcomes from the experiment

Training Purposes Only JEM MEIS INC1920 31407 JMU-081198(Ver. 1.0) 5 MS Architecture MS (Marangoni Surface) is one of FPEF Experiment Cell, and is able to generate Marangoni convection and measure surface velocity of liquid bridge. MS consists of three components. Crew member assemble/ disassemble MS. Install to FPEF Install to FPEF Liquid bridge formation part MS Body - has mechanical/ signal/ power interfaces with FPEF. - mounts Surface Velocity Measurement Equipment. -forms liquid bridge up to 60mm length and creates temperature gradient between heating disk and cooling disk. Heating disk: 90 deg C (maximum) Cooling disk: 5 deg C (minimum) MS Core MS Cassette -contains heating disk and cooling disk of 30mm in diameter. -has optical windows. -contains silicone oil (viscosity: 5cSt or 10cSt) with small particles/ photochromic dye. -crew exchanges MS Cassette as a unit. MS 30mm in diameter 60mm maximum liquid bridge

15. Training Purposes Only JEM MEIS INC1920 31407 JMU-081198(Ver. 1.0) 15 CategoryKey Point Crew Safety- Conduct leak check after assembling MS Core and MS Cassette to prevent fire during experiment. - Do NOT remove more MS protective covers than identified in each step of procedures to prevent broken glass hazard. Time Critical OperationsN/A Dos and Don’ts- Do NOT damage nor contaminate glass parts of Fiber Optic Cable, windows, cameras or mirrors. - Check the diaphragm of 3-D Camera just before installing MS into FPEF. - Do NOT rotate focus ring screw during adjusting 3-D Camera focus. Difficulty in Ops.N/A Possible Mis-Ops.- When inserting MS Cassette into MS Core, if you feel interference, do NOT push MS Cassette any more to prevent silicone oil leakage. At that time pull out MS Cassette once, and try again. Key Points during Marangoni Experiment Operations - Take care that washer is in correct position on fastener to avoid binding.
