Liquid Sloshing Control
in Road Tanker Trucks

Multiphase CFD simulation of liquid sloshing in partially filled road tankers under emergency braking. ANSYS Fluent with VOF model and a custom C-language UDF. Three baffle configurations compared — analysing peak pressure, free surface behaviour, and wall loading.

• 5-baffle config reduced peak wall pressure by ~52% vs baseline
• VOF free-surface confirmed wave-breaking by baffles
• Mesh independence validated across 3 densities (<2% variation)
• UDF applied sinusoidal 0.8g deceleration over 1.5s braking event

Topology Optimisation — Tray Component (Before & After)

SolidWorks FEA static displacement analysis and topology optimisation. Identified low-stress material zones, removed them in the redesign, validated structural equivalence — lightweight design thinking applicable to aerospace manufacturing.

Original Design

Before Topology Optimisation · URES Displacement

Baseline FEA — low-stress zones identified for material removal.

Optimised Design

After Topology Optimisation · Reduced Mass

Material removed from low-stress zones. Performance maintained with reduced mass.
