Abstract
A disco-rectangular volume-fraction-of-fluid (VOF) model tank of a prismatic size is considered here for investigating the severe effect of overhead baffles made of three different materials, nylon, polyamide, and polylactic acid. In this work, the overdamped, undamped, and nominal damped motion of baffles and their effect are studied. In this research, the behaviour of different material baffles based on the sloshing effect and natural frequency of each baffle excited in damped, undamped, and overdamped cases is studied. VOF modelling is carried out in moving Yeoh model mesh with fluid–structure interaction between the water models for various baffle plates. The results of the water volume distribution and baffle displacement operating between a sloshing time of 0 and 1 s are recorded. Also, a strong investigation is carried out for the water volume suspended on overhead baffles by three different material selections.
