E.6.3 Natual Frequencies in a Rigid Cylinderical Tank
원통형 탱크를 대상으로 여러 가지 고유진동수를 계산하였다. Sloshing에 대한 정해는 다음과 같다.
(1) Veletos(1984)는 다음과 같은 식을 제안하였다.
여기에서 \(\small \lambda_{j}\)는 \(\small \frac{dJ_{1}(x)}{dx} = 0\)의 해이며, 저차 3개 값은 \(\small \lambda_{1} = 1.8411837813406593\), \(\small \lambda_{2} = 5.331442773525033\), \(\small \lambda_{3} = 8.536316366346286\) 이다.
(2) Housner(1957)은 Sloshing에 대한 Fundamental frequency에대한 근사식을 다음과 같이 제안하였다.
Sloshing frequency는 모두 incompressible water를 가정한 것이다. 한편 압축성을 고려할 경우 Impulsive 성분에 대한 정해는 직사각형과 같다(Lx = Ly = 2R)
wide 및 tall cylinder에 대해 해를 비교하였다. Wide Cylinder는 R = 18.3 m, H = 12.2 m이고, tall Cylinder는 R=10, H =30이다. 메쉬는 각각 2종을 준비하였으며 fundamental frquency를 비교한다.
