  2. Baffle (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baffle_(heat_transfer)

    In this case the baffle helps increase the efficiency of the stove as more heat leaves the gas before it exits. The baffles prevent the rotational flow without affecting radial or longitudinal flow. The tank is provided with baffles which prevent swirling and vortex formation. Except in very large tanks, four(4) baffles are placed.

  3. Slosh baffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slosh_baffle

    A slosh baffle is a device used to dampen the adverse effects of liquid slosh in a tank. Slosh baffles have been implemented in a variety of applications including tanker trucks , and liquid rockets , although any moving tank containing liquid may employ them.

  4. Baffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baffle

    Baffle (liquid mixing), auxiliary devices employed in tank which suppress the effects of slosh dynamics; Baffle (heat transfer), a flow-directing or obstructing vane or panel used in some industrial process vessels (tanks) Baffle (medicine), a tunnel or wall surgically constructed within the heart or primary blood vessels to redirect blood flow

  5. Tank leaching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_leaching

    As mentioned previously tanks are equipped with agitators to keep the solids in suspension in the vats and improve the solid to liquid to gas contact. [1] Agitation is further assisted by the use of tank baffles to increase the efficiency of agitation and prevent centrifuging of slurries in circular tanks...

  6. Antiroll tanks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiroll_Tanks

    Antiroll tanks are tanks fitted onto ships in order to improve the ship's response to roll motion. Fitted with baffles intended to slow the rate of water transfer from the port side of the tank to the starboard side and the reverse, the tanks are designed such that a larger amount of water is trapped on the higher side of the vessel.

  7. Slosh dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slosh_dynamics

    Most of these studies concentrate on effects of baffles on sloshing while the influence of cross-section is completely ignored. [26] The Bloodhound LSR 1,000 mph project car utilizes a liquid-fuelled rocket that requires a specially-baffled oxidizer tank to prevent directional instability, rocket thrust variations and even oxidizer tank damage ...

  8. Propellant management device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propellant_management_device

    Cylindrical tanks require full-length vanes since a portion of the propellant could adhere to the forward tank head. Spherical tanks need full-length vanes in a case by case basis. If the acceleration is lateral, partial-length vanes can work. [5]: 5 A center post can be added to the tank in addition to the side vanes.

  9. Muzzle brake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muzzle_brake

    Muzzle brake on M47 Patton tank. Muzzle brakes are simple in concept, such as the one employed on the 90 mm M3 gun used on the M47 Patton tank. This consists of a small length of tubing (mounted at right angles) at the end of the barrel. Brakes most often utilize slots, vents, holes, baffles, and similar devices.
