Time-dependent computations have been performed to investigate the dynamical behaviors of fluid under a microgravity environment. A computer algorithm is introduced which can be used to simulate the fluid behavior in that environment, in particular the excitation of sloshing waves due to different gravity environments and rotation speeds. A suggestion on the proper handling and managing of cryogenic fluid propellant to be used in the Gravity Probe-B spacecraft propulsion is made.
