Simulation of sloshing in tank trucks

International Journal of Heavy Vehicle Systems, 2013
Tank trucks dynamics can get worse because of fluid sloshing in partially filled tanks. During braking manoeuvres, fluid sloshing may lead to load transfers causing rear wheels to lock up and loss of directional control, while during turning or lane changes, it may cause rollover.

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

Slosh dynamics in a toroidal tank

22nd Joint Propulsion Conference, 1986
An investigation is described of fluid slosh dynamics in a \ -scale model of a toroidal liquid oxygen tank for a minimum-length orbit transfer vehicle. Experimentally and analytically derived equivalent mechanical models for the slosh modes under a 1-g acceleration are compared. Measurements of the reductions in slosh forces obtained with slosh baffles

Nonlinear Sloshing in a Spherical Tank

Volume 9: Odd M. Faltinsen Honoring Symposium on Marine Hydrodynamics, 2013
Steady-state resonant sloshing in a spherical rigid tank due to horizontal harmonic excitations at the lowest natural frequency is classified by combining the nonlinear multimodal method with the Moiseev-Narimanov asymptotics. The theoretical results are validated by comparison with experiments of Sumner & Stofan (1963) and other already published ...

Sloshing in Rectangular and Cylindrical Tanks

Journal of Ship Research, 2002
To validate an existing finite volume computational method, featuring a novel scheme to capture the temporal evolution of the free surface, fluid motions in partially filled tanks were simulated. The purpose was to compare computational and experimental results for test cases where measurements were available.

On the Sloshing of Liquid in a Flexible Tank

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1958
Abstract The kinetic and potential energies of an incompressible fluid having a free surface in a cylindrical tank subjected to translation, rotation, and simple bending are derived in the forms 1 2 ∑ i ∑ j m i j q . i q . j and 1 2 ∑ i ∑ j k i j q i q j where the qi (t) are generalized co-ordinates.

Vortex damping of sloshing in tanks with baffles

Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, 1998
The paper deals with the oscillations of a liquid with free surface in a tank containing construction elements with sharp edges. The surface tension of the liquid is not taken into account. The liquid is assumed incompressible and low-viscous and the near-wall boundary layer is assumed thin.

Sloshing Response of LNG Tank

Volume 1: Offshore Technology; Offshore Wind Energy; Ocean Research Technology; LNG Specialty Symposium, 2006
Static and dynamic stress analyses of Mark III insulation system for LNG containment considering sloshing impact pressures have been carried out. Various time and spatial characteristics of the loading was considered. A direct implicit time integration method was used for the dynamic analysis.

LIQUID SLOSHING IN A CYLINDRICAL QUARTER TANK

AIAA Journal, 1963
With the increasing size of space vehicles and their larger diameter, both of which lower the natural frequencies of the propellants, the effects of propellant sloshing upon the stability of the vehicle are becoming more critical, especially since at launch usually a very large amount of the total mass is in the form of liquid propellant.
