Abstract

This paper presents a numerical model for predicting sloshing loads on a rectangular tank with a dual baffle having different lengths and locations. The developed model is validated in comparison with the available experimental data. Two types of dual-movable baffles, including linear spring devices and angular spring devices are compared with the dual-fixed baffle. The dual-movable baffles are observed to mitigate the sloshing force exerted on the side wall by about 30-35% when compared with the case of a tank without baffles.
