This paper deals with an active feedback control of sloshing in a liquid transport container by using a moving baffle plate. By inserting the moving baffle plate into the container vertically, the sloshing is effectively suppressed by the energy dissipation caused by vortexes generated around the edge of the moving baffle plate. In this paper, suppression effect by the moving baffle plate on residual sloshing excited by periodic excitation or by sudden stop of the transport container is examined experimentally. The control performance is clarified by changing the controller gain and phase shift, and suppression mechanism is discussed by visualized flow patterns of the fluid flow.
