Scientific paper

CNES and NASA have defined for the DECLIC instrument (Dispositif pour l'Etude de la Croissance et des Liquides Critiques) a basic experiment program which will be implemented during the first mission increments of DECLIC utilization aboard the International Space Station. This programm will take advantage of performances and ressources of the DECLIC Instrument during the first years of utilization, while new experiment insert will be developed in parallel with this utilization. The various type of experiments and possible performances to be reachable will be illustrated through selected experiments, already under development, which will be operated at the beginning of the exploitation phase like : -Fluids (CO2, SF6) near the critical point engineered in a dedicated thermostat (ALI)and designed -Directional Solidification of transparent materials (succinonitrile) engineered in a dedicated insert -High temperature, and high pressure Critical Fluids (H2O, NH3,...) engineered in a dedicated -Miscibles Fluids behaviour designed inside a specific insert (MIDAS). The operational conditions of these experiments will be described, taking advantage of telescience capabilities from ground. The DECLIC flexibility versus new potential future experiment will be indicated for various physical sciences areas such as chemical reaction, combustion, thermal diffusion, ice formation, high temperature directionnal solidification,...
