Abstract
⺠'GeoFlow' experiments deliver benchmark possibilities for spherical Earth models. ⺠'GeoFlow' is part of Fluid Science Laboratory in COLUMBUS module on-board the ISS. ⺠'GeoFlow II' observes basic flow properties in the small viscosity contrast regime. ⺠1-Nonanol can model the influence of the viscosity contrast on flow instabilities. ⺠Pattern characteristics of the isoviscous case show large scale convective cells.
