【 摘 要 】

The impact force of heavy-duty tanker is simulated and analyzed under liquid sloshing. Based on the finite volume method, the free liquid level capture technology (VOF) is used to establish a numerical calculation model for the sloshing analysis of heavy liquid tank trucks. FLUENT, a fluid simulation software, is used to simulate the impact of liquid on the front head of liquid tanker when the braking acceleration is 0.981m/s2, and the filling ratio is 0.5. The influence was studied that the number of rectangular baffles brings the changes of the impact force of the front head of the liquid tanker. The research provides a reference for the optimization design of baffles in heavy oil tanker manufacturers in the future and also validates the rationality of baffle set in the latest national standards.
