iss057e105652 (11/21/2018) --- A view of the Pump Application using Pulsed Electromagnets for Liquid reLocation (PAPELL) - NanoRacks Module-76 experiment which examines the behavior of special magnetic fluid transport systems to determine how these systems perform in space. PAPELL uses cameras and other automated equipment to monitor exactly how ferrofluids travel across grids of electromagnets and through pipes when manipulated with an electromagnetic field under a range of different conditions. The results will contribute to the development of a low wear, low maintenance pumping system.
