Effect of Baffles on the Sloshing in Road Tankers Carrying LPG: A Comparative Numerical Study
This work presents a comparative numerical study of the effect of using baffles, and its design, on the behavior of sloshing in a partially filled road tanker carrying LPG. Navier-Stokes equations and standard k-ε turbulence model are used to simulate fluid movement; the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method...
