ISS NASA: Researcher capillary force move liquid CFE, CFE2, CCF
ISS NASA Researchers Capillary force at International Space station (ISS) for moving the liquid where they wanted
Researchers have studied about the capillary force in the International Space Station which states that Capillary Movements are the movements in a liquid not due to gravity but due to molecules present on it.
They have been trying this force on Earth to design various systems for performing tasks on human health.
Three Experiments were also held, CFE, CFE2, CCF
They also did different investigations like CFE, CFE2 and CCF to examine the capillary force as to improve the design of these systems.
These experiments prove that using passive forces of wetting and surface tension, we can move the liquid where we want them to go and we can also control the container shape and can keep the air and liquid wherever wanted.
This led to the formation of IRPI, an Oregon based Research and Development firm and the people here are experts at fluid mass transport they know how to use it so others can be benefited from them to control the biological and biomedical microenvironment inside the Organ-chips.
After this, Science went up to space, came back to Earth and now it will have new applications back in space.
