An
animation showing how the Combustion Module contains the
Experiment Package, which, in turn, contains the Experiment
Mounting Structure.(1MB) |

An
astronaut removing the cover of the Experiment Package in
order to remove an Experiment Mounting Structure.(2MB) |

Astronauts
removing an Experiment Mounting Structure and putting it
into storage.(2.3MB) |

An
animation showing the range of motion of the delicate screen
at the heart of the CVX-2 experiment. The way the Xexon
fluid "pushes
back" gives scientists valuable information about
its viscosity.(1.1MB) |

A
video from STS-83 showing the ignition of the LSP-1 flame.(1.4MB) |
|

A
video of a laminar gas jet diffusion flame unfurling and
stabilizing during a drop tower experiment.(1.7MB) |
|
|

An
animation showing how the igniter arm swings into position
in front of the fuel nozzle to light the LSP flame and
back to its origional position once the flame is lit.(1.2MB) |
|

An
animation of a laminar flame in microgravity. Without bouyancy,
the fuel (blue lines) spreads out more, which results in
a rounder flame. And the soot (white lines) stays in the
flame longer, which yields larger soot particles.(2MB) |
|

An
animation showing the fuel path (blue line) and the soot
path (white lines) in a laminar gas jet diffusion flame
on Earth.(1.8MB) |

An
animation of a Mist flame in normal gravity. The flame
passes from a dry section, through an iris and into the
misted section, where flame speed, shape and temperature
are measured.(652K) |

An
animation of a Mist experiment in microgravity. The flame
travels from a dry section, through an iris and into
a misted section, where flame speed, shape and temperature
are measured.(652K) |

A
slow motion video of a Mist flame traveling through the
dry section of the tube, passing through the iris and entering
the misted section. (1.1MB) |

A
time-lapse movie of flame balls shot during the STS-83
mission. These were the first flames balls ever imaged
in space.(480K) |
