A numerical study of three-dimensional liquid sloshing in tanks

An improved SPH method for modeling liquid sloshing dynamics

“…For example, traditional FEM cannot treat large fluid deformation very well, and mesh adjustment or rezoning can be necessary in model liquid sloshing. Traditional FDM requires special algorithms such as volume-of-fluid (VOF) [13,14] and Level Set [15] to track changing free surfaces or moving interfaces when modeling liquid sloshing.…”

Numerical Modeling of Optical Properties Inside the Surfzone

“…The recent studies on two-phase Navier-Stokes solvers (e.g., Liu and Lin, 2008) showed the possibilities for directly predicting air packet entrainment and bubble evolution. The studies also indicated some difficulties in modeling air packet breakup, and small bubble entrainment and evolution processes because the requirement for higher resolution in both time and space makes a model computationally unaffordable.…”

Numerical simulation of liquid sloshing using arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian level set method

“…Sloshing has been studied experimentally and numerically, for instance in relation to sea transport of oil and liquefied natural gas [7,8], seismic response of liquefied petroleum gas tank in petrochemical industry [9], and so on. The effect of oscillating tank on fluid motion was, in some cases, taken into account by including a body force induced by the tank motion in the momentum equation of fluid [7,8], as was the case for nuclear reactors [1,2,4,6]. The computational grid for fluid simulation was, in other cases, moved directory according to the tank motion [9].…”
