A STUDY OF DYNAMIC LOADS CAUSED BY LIQUID SLOSHING IN LNG TANKS. VOLUME I. TEXT AND FIGURES

The effects of fluid properties on scaling liquid sloshing pressures and forces were investigated. Sloshing pressures and forces were measured in both prismatic and spherical tanks for a range of fill depths, excitation amplitudes and frequencies. Loads on internal tank components, such as pump towers, were also determined for spherical tanks.
