A Jet erosion tester is designed and used to study the relative erosion behavior of high chromium white cast iron (ASTM 532A) at specific concentration of silica sand as an abrasive material, 45° impact angle and two size of abrasive particles. A slurry pot was used which contains two propellers rotated at the speed required for uniform distribution. The test specimens are mounted on test fixture which is fixed and has a provision to move in different angular position to find out the wear for different angles. Two different experiments are conducted preliminarily by using silica sand as abrasive with particle size of 400-600 µm and 600-800 µm. Impact angle of 45° and solid abrasives of 20% wt. concentration are used as fixed parameters for 10 hours.It was found that the erosion resistance decreases with increasing the abrasive particle size.
