Résumé : | The BAMBI (Bifurcation Anomalies in Marangoni-Bénard Instabilities) experiment has been successfully flown onboard the FOTON-M2 satellite in June 2005. A 5mm-thick 200 cSt silicone oil layer in a 10x10cm2 wide container in contact with a similarly-sized Helium gas layer was heated from ’below’ and cooled from ’above’. A range of temperature differences across the liquid and gas layers was scanned and the onset and evolution of the Marangoni-Bénard instability was thus examined. In the present contribution, velocity results obtained by PTV in the interface plane are presented and compared to theoretical and numerical predictions. |
