In a liquid storage tank assembly (12), a tank (14) has perimeter walls (16) defining an interior volume (18) for storing liquid. A baffle assembly (22) is mounted within the interior volume and includes at least one rotor (26A, 26B) mounted for rotation about an axis (X). The rotor has a plurality of radially extending blades (38A, 38B) configured such that movement of liquid within the interior volume impinging on them causes the rotor (26A, 26B) to rotate about the axis of rotation (X). There may be two or more rotors (26A, 26B) mounted for rotation about the axis, at least two of which may be configured to rotate in opposite directions in response to movement of liquid in the interior. Said blades (38A, 38B) may have perforations. This contra-rotation results in the liquid being divided into layers in alternative flow patterns around the axis of rotation (X). Additionally, the tank and baffle assembly may be incorporated within a vehicle (10, Fig.1).
