3-D numerical simulations of violent sloshing by CIP-based method

The violent sloshing flow inside a rectangular tank is computed by the CIP (Constrained Interpolation Profile)[1] based Cartesian grid method. Two kinds of CIP scheme, the original CIP scheme and the RCIP scheme, have been applied to the flow solver. 2-D and 3-D computations using the two CIP schemes are carried out and their performances are discussed by comparing the results of the impact pressures on the wall and the free surface profiles to the experimental measurements.
