A thorough understanding of the effects sloshing on aircraft dynamic loads is great relevance for future design flexible to be able reduce their structural mass and environmental impact. Indeed, high vertical accelerations caused by vibrations structure can lead fragmentation fuel free surface. Fluid impacts tank ceiling are potentially a new source damping that has hardly been considered befor...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a mathematical tool capable of simulating a wide range of fluid flows. Integrated CFD software has been applied to study the flows in oilfield separators. The influence of inlets, internals, and outlets has been studied with CFD simulations. Of particular value has been the ability of CFD to simulate wave induced sloshing in vessels mounted on floating plat...

This paper assesses the design guidelines of different classification codes for the liquefied natural gas carriers considering the effect of liquid sloshing. With regard the increasing importance of LNG carriers in today’s marine transportation, and also considering that the marine accidents involve significant loss, classification societies by regulating national and international standards ai...

This paper presents a fluid sloshing model using the artificial neural network method (ANN). Determining in tank is challenging task due to its nonlinearity and complexity of behavior environmental operational conditions. Due problems laboratory modeling, use numerical modeling analyze this phenomenon can be justified. In paper, first, simulated by smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH). The input...

We report an experimental study of the three-dimensional spatial structure of the low-frequency temperature oscillations in a cylindrical Rayleigh-Bénard convection cell. Through simultaneous multipoint temperature measurements it is found that, contrary to the popular scenario, thermal plumes are emitted neither periodically nor alternately, but randomly and continuously, from the top and bott...

This paper deals with the experimental studies of sloshing of liquid in partially filled container subjected to external excitation. An experimental set-up is designed to study the behavior of liquid sloshing in partially filled prismatic container. At every instant of time, slosh amplitude is computed at specified location with the help of capacitance probe. The resulting slosh heights for var...

Liquid sloshing in ship tanks would have a direct effect on dynamic stability, and thus is of great importance for navigation safety. To calculate the sloshing-induced force real tanks, this paper presents an approach to numerically simulate liquid-sloshing complex using moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method. The calculated used investigate different excitation conditions which realistic m...
