Abstract
We report in this work a numerical analysis of the sloshing of a squared tank partially filled with a domestic vegetable oil. The tank is subject to controlled motions with a shake table. The free-surface evolution is captured using ultrasonic sensors and an image capturing method. Only confirmed data within the error range is reported. Filling depth, imposed amplitude and frequency effects on the sloshing wave pattern are specifically evaluated. The experiments also reveal the nonlinear wave behavior. The numerical model is based on a stabilized finite element method of the variational multi-scale type. The free-surface is captured using a level set technique developed to be used with adaptive meshes in Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian framework. The numerical results are compared with the experiments for different sloshing conditions near the first sloshing mode. The simulations satisfactorily match the experiments, providing a reliable tool for the analysis of this kind of problems.
