Disclosed are a device for reducing sloshing impact of a cargo hold for liquid cargo and a method for reducing the same. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the device for reducing the sloshing impact of the cargo hold for liquid cargo comprises: a rise guide unit which is installed at a proper place in a cargo hold, and includes a buoyant floating object that floats to the surface of the stored liquid; and a sloshing prevention member, which is restrained in the rise guide unit, floats the surface of the liquid by the floating object, and suppresses sloshing of liquid cargo.

A baffle for a flexible liquid transport tank, having a base portion connected to an interior surface of the liquid transport tank, a single panel shaped to substantially cover the internal cross-sectional area defined by the liquid transport tank, and a link mechanism to interconnect the single panel to the base portion.

A gear transmission and rotation amplification type device for reducing sloshing is arranged inside and located above a body of an LNG storage tank. The device includes a combination disc, a wheel set, an outer sleeve, an overhanging fan blade, ball screws, springs and a sloshing plate. The combination disc is connected with the sloshing plate below through the springs. The combination disc is fixed above an inner wall surface of the body of the LNG storage tank, while the sloshing plate is fitted but not fixedly connected with the inner wall surface of the body of the LNG storage tank. The wheel set, the outer sleeve, the overhanging fan blade and the ball screws are arranged between the combination disc and the sloshing plate and located below the liquid level in the LNG storage tank.

The present invention relates to essential details of the design of an inflatable element (5), which can neither be moved nor deformed by the liquid (3), to its functional operation, and to the resulting predictable and repeatable ability to eliminate turbulent behavior and to influence the behavior of a liquid in a holder (2) or tank suitable for the storage or transport of liquids, in which the element at any liquid level and at any volume of liquid at least completely covers the horizontal liquid surface and in which the element can change both in size and in shape if required necessary by the geometry, the shape or the dimensions of the liquid holder or tank.

A modular fuel tank assembly includes a first fuel tank body defining a first inner volume and a second fuel tank body defining a second inner volume, where the first inner volume is spatially separate from the second inner volume. A connecting conduit is in fluid communication with the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank. The first fuel tank, the second fuel tank and the connecting conduit each define a double-walled structure having an inner wall and an outer wall spaced apart from the inner wall.
