Abstract

The results of mathematical modeling and experimental investigation of flows and heat transfer in supercritical media in the vicinity of the critical thermodynamic point under microgravity and terrestrial conditions are considered. The effects of thermal gravitational convection and thermoacoustics complicated by the adiabatic compression effect, as well as the special features of two- and three-dimensional supercritical structures, are discussed. The experimental results obtained aboard the space station Mir are interpreted. The projects of experiments aboard the International Space Station, together with their terrestrial applications, are discussed.
