In this study, a series of drop tests were carried out to observe the effects of the impact pressure inside a gas pocket of water with different temperatures and/or a lot of bubbles. Cylindrical gas pockets were generated by dropping the body into the water with different temperatures and/or different bubble sizes. Dynamic pressures in gas pockets were measured by various types of pressure sensors installed on the disc that was part of the body. The results of this study are expected to be very useful in understanding the physical phenomena of sloshing inside real liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo.
