It is expected to manufacture new materials under the micro-gravity environment. Under the micro-gravity environment, holding technology of molten metal is important to manufacture new materials. In the present study, the technology to handle the material in space by the ultrasonic wave is developed. However, it is difficult to hold a high temperature object by ultrasonic standing wave due to temperature gradient. Moreover, it is also important to measure the physical properties of the material by non-contacting. Therefore the followings are the purposes of present study. At first, the characteristics of droplets holding by the ultrasonic standing wave under normal gravity environment is investigated. Secondly, the surface tension of the droplet is estimated by measuring surface oscillation. Thirdly, the viscous coefficient of liquid droplet is calculated by the damping constant of the droplet. Finally, numerical calculation is conducted to clarity the characteristics of the high temperature object holding in space.
