Abstract

Material loss due to erosion wear is a serious problem associated with flow of solid-liquid mixtures. Slurry erosion limits the useful life of equipment and is therefore a critical parameter for design, selection and operation of the hydraulic transportation system. Engineering interest is to estimate the service life of equipment / components subjected to slurry erosion and to investigate the possibilities of enhancement of their life. To being with the research work, it is essential for a researcher to get acquainted with previous investigation carried out in the relevant domain. Hence, present overview is intended to put forward the various type of test rig used for the experimental work by various researchers. Also explore the effect of tribological parameters on erosion wear mainly slurry erosion like target material, erodent material, impact angle, impact velocity, particle size and solid concentration. Finally, some inference drowns from an overview and concludes future research scope that will be helpful to a new researcher in the field of slurry erosion wear.
