Abstract

This paper describes the sloshing test of the Bilobe LNG tank type due to the LNG ship’s motion in regular wave. Two-dimensional sloshing of the transverse tank was analysed due to the considered rolling excitation. The experimental device developed with a principal work to oscillate the filling liquid tank under the controlled amplitude and period of platform motion. Three variations of the LNG filling level inside the tank which were an empty condition, 10%, a half condition, 50%, and a full condition, 90%, considered to be investigated the occurred maximum pressure on the inner wall of LNG tank for certain amplitude and period of times. The test results represented in terms of free surface patterns that its compared with the simulation results which computed by the computational fluid dynamics approach for all cases of liquid filling level of the tank. The comparison results of the sloshing test and the numerical simulation had shown a close with the root mean square (RMSE) about 4%. Furthermore, the effect of baffle in reducing the sloshing pressure on the inner wall of tank was also investigated numerically.
