최근 자동차, 선박, 항공기의 운행시 외력에 의해 연료탱크 내의 유체가 출렁거리는 슬로싱 현상으로 인하여 구조물 내부가 손상되어 큰 영향을 미치고 있다. 따라서 적재연료의 슬로싱 영향을 최소화하기 위해서 전산유체역학적으로 유체의 거동을 정확히 해석하는데 무엇보다 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 ADINA-CFD를 이용하여 Kia 프론티어 Cargo용 연료탱크에 수직배플과 수평배플의 길이 및 개수에 따른 유체유량 및 압력의 특성을 파악하고, 코너 및 언덕 주행시 슬로싱 감소를 위해 해석하였다. 그 결과로 슬로싱 감소효과를 위해 배플의 최적길이는 수직배플의 경우 0.19 m, 수평배플의 경우 0.08 m로 나타났다. 그리고 자동차주행 경우에 코너주행 시는 수직배플이 수평배플보다 슬로싱 감소효과를 보이는 반면에, 언덕주행 시는 수평배플이 효과적이며 안정성을 나타내었다.

The oscillation of the fluid caused by external forces is call ed sloshing, which occurs in moving vehicles with contained liquid masses, such as trucks, railroad cars, aircraft, and liquid rocket. This sloshing effect could be a severe problem in vehicle stability and control. In this study, the optimization design technique for reduction of the sloshing using evolutionary method is suggested. Two evolutionary methods are employed, respectively the artificial neural network(ANN) and genetic algorithm. An artificial neural network is used for the analysis of sloshing and genetic algorithm is adopted as optimization algorithm. As a result of optimization design, the optimized size and location of the baffle is presented

The interaction between a sloshing liquid damper (SLD) tank and a rectangular pontoon was investigated under the assumption of the linear potential theory. The eigenfunction expansion method was used not only for the sloshing problem in the SLD tank but also for analyzing the motion responses of a rectangular pontoon in waves. If the frictional damping due to the viscosity of the SLD tank was ignored, the effect of the SLD appeared to be an added mass in the coupled equation of motion. The installation of the SLD tank had a greater effect on the roll motion response than the sway and heave motion of the pontoon. One resonance peak for rolling motion showed up in the case of a frozen liquid in the SLD tank. However, if liquid motion in the SLD tank was allowed, two peaks appeared around the first natural frequency of the fluid in the SLD tank. In particular, the peak value located in the low-frequency region had a relatively large value, and the peak frequency located in the high-frequency region moved into the high-frequency region as the depth of the liquid in the tank increased.

When a liquid cargo tank is partially filled with fluid, internal impact loads can be occurred from the vessel's motions. In this study, liquid sloshing problems with a thin top layer of particles with a lighter density than water and the coupling effects of the liquid-sloshing/vessel-motion were investigated in order to reduce the sloshing-induced impact loads. The PNU-MPS (Pusan-National-University-modified Moving Particle Simulation) method for solving the liquid motion inside a tank and the CHARM3D BEM (Boundary Element Method) based time-domain ship motion analysis program for vessel-motion simulation were coupled. From the simulation results, we could see that the floaters seemed to be quite effective at reducing the sloshing impact loads in the case of tank-only sloshing problems, but not as much for the coupling problem with vessel motion.

Liquid fluctuation called sloshing within liquid-storage tank gives rise to the significant effect on the dynamic stability of tank. This liquid sloshing can be effectively suppressed by installing baffles within the tank, and the suppression effect depends strongly on the design parameters of baffle like the baffle configuration. The present study is concerned with the parametric evaluation of the sloshing suppression effect for the CNG-storage tank, a next generation liquefied fuel for vehicles, to the major design parameters of baffle, such as the baffle configuration, the installation angle and height, the hole size of baffle. The coupled FEM-FVM analysis was employed to effectively reflect the interaction between the interior liquid flow and the tank elastic deformation.

The sloshing tank causes the instability of the fluid flows and the fluctuation of the impact pressure by the liquid on the tank. These flow characteristics inside the sloshing tank can generate the uncomfortable sloshing noise. In the present study, a numerical analysis for the reduction of a fuel tank sloshing noise was performed. To simulate the flow characteristics in a sloshing tank with partially filled liquid, a VOF method was used for interfacial flows by applying a momentum source term for the sloshing motion in a non-inertial reference frame. This numerical method was verified by comparing its results with the available experimental data. For the reduction of the sloshing noise, the horizontal and vertical baffles and porous media inside a sloshing tank were considered and numerically analyzed in the present study. For various installations of these baffles and porous media, the characteristics of the liquid behavior in the sloshing tank were obtained along with the impact pressure on the wall and the height of the free surface along the wall. These basic results can be used for the design of the actual vehicular fuel tank with the reduced sloshing noise.

The effects of an anti-rolling tank (ART) on vessel motions were numerically investigated. The potential-based BEM vessel motion simulation program and particle-based computational fluid dynamics program were dynamically coupled and used to perform a simulation of vessel motions with ART. From the time domain simulation results, the response amplitude operators for sway and roll motions were obtained and compared with the corresponding experimental and numerical results. Because the main purpose of ART was only to reduce roll motions, it was important to show that the natural properties of a floating vessel were not changed by the effects of ART. Various ART filling ratios and several ART positions were considered. In conclusion, ART only reduced the roll motion regardless of its filling ratio and position.

Storage tank filled with fluid has unique dynamic characteristics compared to general structures, due to the interaction between fluid and structure. The oscillation of the fluid surface caused by external forces is called sloshing, which occurs in moving vehicles with contained liquid masses, such as trucks, railroad cars, aircrafts, and liquid missles. In this study, the evaluation method for the reduction of sloshing, the optimized size and location of wing and diaphragm baffles are suggested based on the experimental results. The experimental device can simulate the translation motion. A rectangular tank and various baffles are fabricated to study on the sloshing characteristics. The forces measured using the load cell at tank wall and those are compared with each other through the Fourier transformation for various conditions. The study of the sloshing of the rectangular tank equipped with baffles is conducted under the same conditions with non-baffled rectangular tank experiment. From the experimental results, the sloshing reduction effect by the baffles is observed. In conclusion in case of diaphragm baffles, the optimized size ratio of the width of baffle to the water height is 0.44 and the installation location has no effect to the damping of sloshing. In case of wing baffles, the optimized size ratio of the width of baffle to the length of a rectangular tank is 0.1 and the optimized location ratio of the baffle to the water height is 0.9.

선박의 유체 저장 탱크 내부의 적재용량에 의한 선박 운동 고유 특성의 변화는 많은 실험 과 연구를 통해 밝혀졌다. 또한 이러한 현상에 의한 선박 운동 특성 변화를 최소화하기 위한 장치는 지속적으로 연구 및 개발되고 있으며, 특히 횡동요 운동에 대한 저감효과에 대한 부분이 주를 이루고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 장치 중 하나인 저장탱크 내부의 격벽에 의한 횡동요 저감장치의 길이 변화에 따른 간극의 변화에 의한 선박 운동의 변화를 수치 시뮬레이션 하였다. 본 연구를 위해 경계요소법 기반의 부유체 운동 프로그램과 입자법 기반의 전산유체역학 프로그램이 동적 연성된 프로그램을 사용하였으며, 동적 연성된 프로그램은 동일 실험과의 비교를 통해 검증하였다. 검증된 프로그램은 격벽의 길이를 달리하여 간극에 변화를 준 다양한 경우에 대해 수치 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그 결과 액체 저장률의 변화 및 액체 탱크 내부의 격벽에 의한 간극의 차이에 의해 선박 운동 특성이 변화함을 응답 진폭 함수의 비교를 통해 확인하였다. 주목할 만한 결과로써 적재용량에 따라 변화하는 선박의 운동 특성이 간극을 조정함으로써 동일한 선박 특성을 가지게 됨을 확인하였으며, 이는 격벽에 의한 간극의 조종을 통한 선박 운동 제어가 가능함을 보여준다. 추후 격벽의 수 및 각기 다른 길이를 가진 격벽에 의한 연구를 수행하여 격벽 길이 조정을 통한 선박 운동 특성 제어에 대한 연구를 수행할 계획이다.
