Can simulate vibration of a tank?

halavikia · August 13, 2010, 05:29

Hi every body
I want to simulate a cylandrical tank that half of it filled with water and the tank is vibrating?

Is it possible to simulate this problem by FLUENT?
If yes, How should I simulate vibration?

thanks

Hi
I´m also trying to simulate water in a tank with movement.
It´s possible with fluent. You have to use an UDF for the tank movement and the VOF multiphase model.
I still don't know how to make the UDF file work.
Have you got any answers so far?
