Abstract

Model tests to generate validation data for the codes predicting the sloshing and progression of water through an opening in case of a damaged ship were planned and performed. Behaviour of the flooding water after the damage is greatly dependent on the internal compartment geometries and vessel motions. Vessels angular position and motions in turn are affected by the flooding water. Thus accurate prediction of this strongly coupled flooding phenomenon requires simultaneous solving of the ship motions and behaviour of the internal water. In order to produce validation data for calculation methods for internal flood water behaviour, tests for water motion between two connected neighbouring compartments were designed. Model tests concentrated purely on the internal sloshing motion under forced compartment motions, thus uncoupling the vessel response.
