Abstract

The design of a jet impingement slurry erosion test rig, built for laboratory use, is presented. This apparatus gives good control over many of the important test parameters, such as impact velocity, solid particle concentration and impact angle. An ejector nozzle is employed to entrain sand particles from a sand bed into a stream of water to form a slurry; after impingement, the abrasive particles and the water phase are separated and recycled. This makes the rig simple, economical and easy to operate and its pump and pipeline remain free from erosive wear. Experimental results are presented to illustrate the operation and performance of the rig.
