The present study is to carry out a numerical sloshing using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) in the prismatic tank. Sloshing is a violent flow caused by the resonance of fluid in the tank by external oscillation. The prismatic tank was used to resemble a membrane LNG type carrier. The sloshing experiment was carried out using three pressure sensors, a camera high resolution, and four degrees of freedom forced oscillation machine. In this study, a filling ratio of 25% was used to reproduce sloshing in a low filling ratio. Only roll motion is used in the numerical simulation. Roll motion is directly imposing from the experiment displacement, and a comparison of hydrostatic and dynamic pressure was made to validate the SPH result. The time duration of the sloshing is the same as the experiment. Single-phase and multiphase SPH are conducted to reproduce sloshing in the prismatic tank. Sloshing was done both for the 2D and 3D domain. It shows that SPH has a good agreement with analytical and experimental results. The dynamic pressure is similar to an experiment through a spurious pressure oscillation exist. The dynamics pressure results show fairly for short time simulation and slightly decrease after that. The free surface deformation tendency is similar to experiment.
