Abstract

The geometric model is built with SOLIDWORKS, and the VOF(Volume Of Fluid) method in the CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) software fluent is used to simulate the sloshing characteristics during the brake and steering of the Hazardous Materials Rescue Truck. The braking acceleration, the liquid filling ratio of the vehicle, lateral acceleration, the effect of the baffle during braking and steering are respectively studied. The results show that the steering and braking of Hazardous Materials Rescue Trucks will cause the liquid in the tank to slosh, and the liquid sloshing will cause the wall slosh force of the tank to change. The driving stability of Hazardous Materials Rescue Trucks can be effectively improved by the reduction of braking force, proper liquid-filling ratio, reduction of lateral acceleration, and increase of baffles.
