Hi,
I am simulating sloshing in cylindrical tanks with FLOW3D. The oscillation is linear in x-direction. I have saved the forces in x-direction with Force Window and want to calculate the mass which is sloshing in the container and making the force on the tank wall. I have also the linear acceleration, but my calculated mass is higher then the total fluid mass in the container. Here the data: Force: F=3,3N linear acceleration a=0,154 m/s^2 calculated mass= 21,42 kg total mass in container= 9,2 kg The calculated sloshing mass is higher then the total mass, thats impossible. I need help. Does anybody knows where my mistake is? Thank you so much. |
