Abstract
Slurry erosion is a common phenomenon found in fluid handling systems and processing industries. The components used in such systems and industries experience serious surface damage due to continuous interaction with flowing fluids. Hence, the components fall short to work of its lifetime. Selection of materials for such applications is a challenge for the designers. In this article, an attempt has been made to develop a slurry jet erosion test rig to evaluate such materials. Brass is used as the candidate material to evaluate the test rig with and without erodent. The material weight loss for different impingement angles is presented. Micrographs show the traces of erosion marks. These results are presented in the article to show the operation and performance of the test rig.
