    摘要: A system for fluid management in low or micro gravity environment, the system including: a two-phase gas-liquid tank suitable for storage of a two-phase gas-liquid, the two-phase gas-liquid tank including an outer surface, an inner cavity, and an outlet between the inner cavity and the outer surface. The system further includes a thermal or electromagnetic device disposed on or proximal to the two-phase gas-liquid tank. The system further includes a controller operatively coupled to the thermal or electromagnetic device, the controller being configured to energize the thermal or electromagnetic device in a controlled manner (i) to generate a thermal or electromagnetic gradient heat in the two-phase gas-liquid and (ii) urge a portion of the two-phase gas-liquid to the outlet of the two-phase gas-liquid tank.
