From the reviews: The research work of the author and his colleagues at the Center of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity, University of Bremen, considers the behavior of fluids in a low-gravity environment with special emphasis on application in PMD (propellant management device) systems. The experimental results are presented for a wide range of parameters, and a one-dimensional theory is corroborated by the experiments. It is very well written research monograph, which should be of considerable value to the scientists working in this field. (Jagdish Prakash, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1115 (17), 2007) A compendium that would be particularly helpful to a person new to the field. An attractive feature of the book is the inclusion of summaries . The book should be of interest to specialists in fluid management systems design for low gravity. For the nonspecialist the book gives a good glimpse into how results from experiments, analysis, and computation can combine to provide information and insight into low-gravity fluid flow, on which engineering designs can be based.
