Popis: Sloshing is a common flow phenomenon in liquid cargo tanks and has a great negative impact on the stability and safety of ship navigation. It is important to understand the sloshing process of tanks under the excitation of complex external conditions for the transportation of liquid cargo. In this paper, the sloshing characteristics of a liquid cargo tank are studied under the combination excitation conditions of roll and surge. The pressure distribution characteristics at different positions of the cargo tank are discussed, along with the influence of different excitation conditions on the pressure of the cargo tank. The results show that under the condition of combination excitation, the fluid sloshes along the diagonal direction of the tank, and the peak liquid height and peak pressure are located on the diagonal corner of the tank. The peak pressure at the lowest point on the diagonal of the tank is proportional to the amplitude of the roll angle and surge, and the change in roll angle amplitude has a significant impact on the pressure and liquid height at different positions.
