Abstract

We consider three mathematical models describing behaviour of nonisothermal liquid in microgravity conditions. First of them is alternative with respect to the classical Oberbeck-Boussinesq model of convection. It deals with a liquid which density is the function of temperature only but the velocity vector is no longer solenoidal. Second one is the linear model of convective flow in a weakly compressible liquid. Third model describes the motion of an emulsion or a gas-liquid mixture exposed to the thermocapillary forces and microacceleration.
