Abstract EN
Longitudinal liquid sloshing in partially filled clear-bore tanks causes extensive degradation of tankers braking performance.
To reduce the negative effect of longitudinal liquid sloshing on tankers, three kinds of transverse baffles were designed, namely, the conventional baffle, the circular baffle, and the staggered baffle.
Each kind of baffle took several forms to investigate the impact of baffle installation angle, the sizes of holes pierced on the baffle, and their arrangement on the antisloshing effect.
FLUENT software was used to simulate liquid sloshing in tanks equipped with different kinds of transverse baffles and subject to constant braking deceleration.
A time-series analysis of the forces act on tank walls and transverse baffles was carried out.
It was drawn that the baffle shape and its installation angle have great impact on the antisloshing effect of baffles.
The study on the antisloshing effect of different transverse baffles is of great significance for tank vehicle driving and braking safety, as well as for the design of optimal transverse baffles.
