Future space activities will require the development of large power sources. Two-phase alkali metal nuclear reactors appear to be a promising source of this power based on weight, compactness and heat transfer criteria. Consequently, two-phase, microgravity computer codes must be developed to analyze and design the reactor core since the cost of large scale prototype operation in space is prohibitive. This paper presents the results of a comprehensive survey of microgravity, two-phase flow data, required to develop the necessary constitutive relations, and describes the approach chosen for the development of microgravity computer codes.
