The dynamical behavior of spacecraft propellant affected by the asymmetric combined gravity gradient and jitter acceleration are studied. In particular the effect of surface tension on partially-filled rotating fluids applicable to a full-scale Gravity Probe-B Spacecraft dewar tank has been investigated. Three different cases of orbital accelerations: (a) gravity gradient-dominated, (b) equally weighted between gravity gradients and jitter, and (c) gravity jitter-dominated accelerations are considered. Fluctuations of angular momentum, fluid moment and bubble mass center caused by slosh wave excitations driven by gravity gradient and jitter accelerations are also investigated.
