Simulations of two- and three-dimensional sloshing in rectangular tanks are performed using the commercial CFD code FLOW3D. Small amplitude freely oscillating sloshing and non-linear sloshing due to forced excitation were investigated. The results are compared to both experimental results and other numerical results; and tests are made with different grids. The purpose of this study was the validation of the new VOF algorithm under development at Flow Science and implemented in FLOW3D.
