In space, it could be possible to make high quality, large and new functional materials. For the material processing such as melt growth of materilas for electrical devices and oxides, it is very important to understand and control the convective phenomena in melt. In this point of view, Marangoni convection in a liquid bridge which simulates the half floating zone was observed under microgravity conditions during parabolic filght. The experimental resutls was compared with that of numerical simulations. The developing processes of flow filed and temperature field were made clear. Furthermore, it coud be possible to estimate the pehnomena which might be happened as long time passed by numerical simulations. It means that numerical simulation is very usufel for developing the materila processing in space.
