Abstract
The dynamic forces that the flooded water exerts to a ship are of interest in terms of damaged ship survivability. The dynamic force of the flooded water is generated by sloshing and flow from one compartment to the other. The purpose of the tests reported in this paper is to study the impact of ship motion on the progression of flooding. Another purpose is to provide data for the study on the interaction between the flow through the opening and the sloshing. The volume exchange between the compartments is presented. A surface tracking method was applied to the video recordings in order to measure the exchange of the water between the compartments. The applicability of hydraulic equation is studied. The total force and moment of the water exerting on the tank is reported as well.
