The problem of development and testing of the experimental setup for the automatic control of thermal fluid convection allowing to be performed remotely within distance laboratory works on the level of secondary and high schools has been considered. The novelty of the approach is the development of remote sensing technology for research on laboratory equipment in real time. The actuality of the problem is due to the demand for professionals with expertise in remote sensing data collection and processing, as well as access of students in secondary and high schools to the equipment and achievements of leading scientific schools

A new concept of teaching and research laboratory for the study of classical convection problems for the students of specialisation “physical hydrodynamics” and related specialties has been proposed. The novelty of the approach lies in the complex laboratory work, which includes both the physical experiment, data collection and signal processing using modern techniques and simultaneous in-real-time implementation of numerical modeling and data analysis. Use of information-communication technologies and multimedia allows students to more effectively absorb such basic concepts of fluid mechanics, as the stability of me-chanical equilibrium, the excitation of secondary modes of fluid motion and the gradual transition to chaotic behavior. As an example, the laboratory session for the study of convection in a gorizontal layer heated from below is presented
