When culturing microalgae, we often use aeration for mixing the culture fluid. However, it is not clear how microalgae and aeration interact each other. In order to understand transport phenomena in a microalgae suspension, it is important to clarify the distribution of cells in a container. In this study, we visualized the distribution of microalgae in a tube container with aeration. In the case without aeration, we observed the bioconvection with chaotic pattern. In the case with aeration, on the other hand, we observed cells aggregated in specific regions.
