Abstract

The dynamical behavior of fluids affected by the asymmetric gravity jitter oscillations, in particular the effect of surface tension on partially-filled rotating fluids in a dewar tank, with and without installing baffle-board, imposed by time-dependent directions of background gravity have been investigated. Results show that lower frequency gravity jitter imposed on the time-dependent variations of the direction of background gravity induced a greater amplitude of oscillations and a stronger degree of asymmetry in liquid-vapor interface geometry than that made by the higher frequency gravity jitter. As viscous force, between liquid and solid interface, greatly contributes to the damping effect of slosh wave excitation, rotating dewar installed with baffle provide more areas of liquid-solid interface than that of rotating dewar without installing baffle. Results show that damping effect provide by baffle reduce the amplitude of slosh wave excitation, lower angular momentum and fluid moment fluctuation than that without installing baffle and lower degree of asymmetry in liquid-vapor distribution.
