本文用六分之一比例的低温罐车模型，研究了挡边设计和挡边数目对液体纵向运动的影响。已经研究了许多挡水板类型，包括实心碟形、斜形、螺旋形、圆形和穿孔设计。在典型的停止过程中，对油箱上的力和油箱内的压力进行的时间序列分析表明，超过三个挡板的好处会减少。与这里测试的所有其他类型的挡板相比，穿孔挡板最有效地减少了液体涌动。这种穿孔布置具有重量轻的额外优点，使得能够在不损害安全性的情况下增加油轮的有效载荷。
The effects of baffie design and number on longitudinal liquid movement in road tankers has been studied experimentally using a one-sixth scale model of a cryogenic road tanker. A number of baffie types have been investigated, including solid dished, oblique, spiral, round, and perforated designs. Time-series analysis of the forces on the tank and the pressures inside it during a typical stop showed a decreasing benefit with more than three baffies. The perforated baffies reduce liquid surging most effectively compared with all other types of baffie tested here. This perforated arrangement has the added advantage of being lightweight, enabling the tanker payload to be increased without compromising safety.
