Sloshing in Space

Scientific American, 2004
The article discusses how the Dutch are sending water into Earth orbit. Carried aloft as a secondary payload by an Ariane 5 rocket in late September, the diminutive Dutch satellite Sloshsat FLEVO will study the sloshing behavior of water in weightlessness for two weeks. Sloshsat FLEVO (Facility for Liquid Experimentation and Verification in Orbit) is a

Sloshing in microgravity

Cryogenics, 1999
Abstract The International Space Station provides a low gravity environment for experiments that require very low acceleration. The steady component of acceleration due to the gravity gradient is in the microgravity range. It is possible to achieve microgravity levels for the variable component by using isolation racks.

Simulation of Sloshing in LNG Tanks

Volume 3: Pipeline and Riser Technology; CFD and VIV, 2007
The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the prediction of internal loads on liquified natural gas (LNG) tanker ships and on offshore platforms. We use the moving grid approach and a finite volume solution method designed to allow for arbitrary ship motion. The motion of liquid is computed using an interface-capturing scheme which allows overturning and

Sloshing-Coupled Ship Motion Algorithm for Estimation of Slosh-Induced Pressures

Journal of Marine Science and Application, 2018
The effect of coupling between sloshing and ship motions in the evaluation of slosh-induced interior pressures is studied. The coupling between sloshing loads and ship motions is modelled through a hybrid algorithm which combines a potential flow solution based on transient Green function for the external ship hydrodynamics with a viscous flow solution

Nonlinear sloshing in zero gravity

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2002
We study the effect of a time-periodic, lateral acceleration on the two-dimensional flow of a fluid with a free surface subject to surface tension, confined between two plane, parallel walls under conditions of zero gravity. We assume that the velocity of each contact line is a prescribed, single-valued function of the dynamic contact angle between

Zero Gravity Sloshing

2001
We study the effect of a time-periodic, lateral acceleration on the twodimensional flow of a Newtonian fluid with a free surface subject to surface tension. The fluid is confined between two plane, parallel walls under conditions of zero gravity. We assume that the velocity of each contact line is a linear function of the slope of the free surface ...

The ISS SPHERES-Slosh Experiment: Slosh Data Acquisition and Analysis

Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets
Accurate prediction of liquid propellant slosh coupled with rocket launch vehicle or spacecraft dynamics requires computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models validated with long-duration, low-gravity slosh data. In a low-gravity environment, space vehicle disturbances, such as residual accelerations, orbital maneuvers, and docking, can induce propellant

Multimodal method in sloshing

2021
The multimodal method reduces the free-surface sloshing problem to a (modal) system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The method was originally proposed for nonimpulsive hydrodynamic loads but, recently, it was successfully extended to the sloshing-induced slamming. In the 50 ???
