The paper deals with heat and mass transfer research issues related to the development of spacecraft active thermal control systems, more specifically development of two-phase heat transport system technology. It focuses on design and development supporting theoretical work: the thermal/gravitational scaling of two-phase heat transport systems, including the aspects of gravity level dependent two-phase flow pattern mapping and condensation.
