دوفازی - Fuel Tank Sloshing
Introduction
The purpose of this tutorial is to investigate the free surface movement
of liquid fuel in a tank under varying acceleration scenarios and to
determine the most suitable configuration of the fuel tank to ensure
continuous fuel supply through the pick-up pipe
Two conconfiguration of the fuel tank are considered|tank with internal
baffles and tank without internal baffles. You will compare the two
configuration on the basis of liquid interface and velocity vector plots
generated for each case.This tutorial demonstrates how to do the
following
Set up and solve a transient problem using the pressure-based solver and the VOF model
Define parameters specific to the Non-Iterative Time Advancement (NITA) scheme
Create a journal file to track the liquid interface with time
Request automatic execution of commands to create images for post-processing
Compare the two configuration on the basis of liquid interface and velocity vector plots generated
Problem Description
The tutorial considers two configuration of the fuel tank for comparison. Figure 1 shows the tank with internal baffles. Figure 2 shows the tank without baffles. The tank undergoes an acceleration of 9.81 m/s2 in the positive X direction. Recall that if the tank accelerates in the +X direction, the liquid experiences an equal and opposite reaction in the -X direction. After 1.5 seconds, the acceleration in the X direction stops and only gravity (in the -Z direction) acts on the liquid in the tank
A prior analysis indicates that the pick-up pipe might not be completely submerged after 0.45 seconds of acceleration and after 1.25 seconds of acceleration. An analysis of both tank designs will be compared after 0.45 seconds and 1.25 seconds to conrm that the pickup pipe in the tank without baffles is not submerged in fuel while the tank with baffles will be analyzed to see if the baffles x the problem and keep the pick-up pipe completely submerged in fuel. The tank with baffles will be analyzed rst. Then, the baffles will be switched from wall boundaries to interior boundaries and the tank without baffles will be analyzed under the same conditions as the tank with baffles
