Research Abstract |
In order to establish the estimation method of sloshing load in consideration of the hydroelastic effect of tank walls and to develop the new reduction device for sloshing pressure, the experimental study was conducted by using the various types of tank models. As results, it was cleared that the ratio of the average peak pressure showed from 0.7R to 1.3R compared with the scale ratio R of tank models and that the mass of additional water could be estimated by the quarter circle model when the impulsive pressure was applied to tank top plate. In addition, though the reduction effect of sloshing pressure by membrane materials was remarkable for wide filling ratio of inside fluid, it was found that the reaction force at supporting points of ropes got to large in the middle and high filling ratio. Therefore, the reduction device was improved only for low filling ratio and its effectiveness was verified experimentally.
