Abstract

Abstract The ultimate assessment of the wear resistance of materials can only be obtained in service. However, since testing in service is a long and expensive process, simulation testing in service simulation systems is much more suitable. It is suggested that a step by step approach to simplified tests arranged in six categories should be taken as a basis for assessment. The relevance and transferability of results from abrasive and erosive wear tests for practical applications are discussed with the help of examples from various fields including rock drilling, brick moulding, gravel washing and hydraulic stowing pipes. If the model test is functioning correctly, a correlation is observed between category 4 simulation results and service results.
