Abstract

This experimental work characterises the fluid response of isothermal water in a horizontal cylinder (Fig. 1) with a fill level of 30%. This parametric study investigates three forcing amplitudes and eleven forcing frequencies for each respective amplitude. Images captured using a high-speed camera are used to quantify global sloshing amplitudes, using the lateral motion of the centre of gravity (COG). Free surface elevations at the left and right sidewalls are also quantified. The maximum displacements obtained, for all three forcing amplitudes tested, show a softening non-linear response. In this work we refer to the maximum response as the largest sloshing amplitude recorded for each forcing amplitude (A). We show asymmetry in the steady state between the left and right sidewall run up, where the forcing amplitude (A = 2mm) and the excitation frequency ratio is near its maximum response.
