Numerical Studies on Violent Sloshing and Resonance Frequencies in a Three-Dimensional Prismatic Tank

To predict the resonance frequency of the real liquefied natural gas (LNG) tank, a Cartesian grid based three-dimensional (3D) multiphase flow model is used to simulate violent sloshing in a prismatic tank at different filling levels and excitation frequencies. In this model, a semi-implicit finite...
