An experimental study of the film produced by the spray impact on a heated target and of the spray cooling has been performed in normal gravity and in microgravity conditions during parabolic flights. A convex shape of the target allowed visualization of the film evolution and determination of the film characteristics using the image processing. The effects of the spray parameters and of the gravity level on heat transfer have been investigated. It has been found that the spray cooling efficiency depends on the water flow rate in a nonmonotonous way. A range of spray parameters at which the effect of gravity level on heat transfer is significant has been determined. It has been found that the spray cooling is less effective in microgravity conditions in comparison with normal gravity and hypergravity.
