Software models and experimental benches for studying some of the physical aspects of the fluid motion in a zero gavity environment are described. These tools are used in the design, development and testing of Propellant Management Devices (PMD's) which provide gas free propellant from the tanks to the thrusters during the life of a spacecraft. PMD's and their validation in simulated low gravity using bubble point measurements and neutral buoyancy tests are addressed.
