In-tank fluid sloshing effects during earthquakes: A preliminary computational simulation
Hundreds of underground radioactive waste storage tanks are located at Department of Energy (DOE) sites. At present, no technique for evaluating the pressure loads due to the impact of earthquake generated waves on the side walls and dome of the tanks is known if the wave breaks back on itself. This paper presents the results of two-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) calculations of the motion of waves in a generic rectangular tank as the result of accelerations recorded during an earthquake. The advantages and limitations of this technique and methods for avoiding the limitations will be discussed.
