This work is concerned with a study of container filling, with particular reference to the food industry. A computer code was developed and an experimental rig was built, the main purpose being to validate the software. The computational fluid dynamic (CFD) code, called GENSMAC, was specifically designed for relatively slow viscous flow and was capable of capturing multiple free surfaces. This paper focuses on the design of the experimental rig and how it functions. The visual output of the code is then compared with high-speed photographic shots of glucose syrup being jetted into a tub for a selected number of flow regimes
