Slosh baffle
 | This article needs more citations. (September 2025) |
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.[1]
Baffle rings
[edit]Baffle rings are rigid rings placed within the inside of a tank to retard the flow of liquid between sections to prevent a "wave effect". The location and orifice size of the rings yield varying performance for a given application.[2]
