“…It should be noted that the peak of erosion is sharper for the paint than the other materials thus the spread of erosion may not be so well captured as the peak, however it is most often the peak erosion which is the major concern so this issue is not that significant. These results confirm the ductile behavior of the paint, in agreement with that reported previously (Parslow et al, 1997, Noui-Mehidi et al, 2008. Figure 4a shows the erosion on the aluminium 1.5D elbow model as measured using the CMM with the corresponding paint modelling results shown in Figure 4b.…”

“…Most off-the-shelf paints show ductile behavior according to Noui-Mehidi et al (2008) and Parslow et al (1997). More accurate measurements on the effect of particle impingement angle for paint layers have been recently made using a purpose built erosion test facility to check the validity of paint modeling for a variety of materials.…”

“…Thus currently it is still critical to use experiments to validate CFD and to use physical experiments to make assessment of the new design concepts. Wu et al (2005) and Noui-Mehidi et al (2008) have shown the feasibility of using the multilayer paint technique to produce highly visible and accelerated erosion damage on various flow geometries to assist developing improved geometrical designs, in order to minimize the erosion. This paper extends these previous studies and summarizes the basic technical procedures and assessment of the paint modeling technique in relation to actual erosion damage and CFD modeling.…”

Impact by sand particles entrained in gas or oil product streams from down-hole well completions often causes erosive damage to the surface of sand filtration screens, heat exchangers, pipes, pipe bends, valves, gas compressors and other equipment. It is of major interest to develop designs to minimise the erosion damage. Erosion is often found to be unevenly distributed, for example erosion in a pipe elbow. Localized deep material loss or holing can lead to functional failure even though other areas of the component surface may be still undamaged. It was found that component design/geometry could often be modified to alter the flow field and even-out the erosion distribution, thus reducing the localized high erosion rate and extending the equipment service life. The optimization process can be most effectively carried out with assistance from erosion flow modelling. The objective of this paper is to describe the latest erosion flow modelling technique used at CSIRO, Australia. The technique consists of a combined laboratory physical modelling and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach. The physical modelling employs a paint modelling technique to illustrate the erosion patterns and advanced metrology for quantitative erosion measurements. Both of these data sets are also used to validate and improve CFD erosion modelling. The paper will show a series of case studies of erosion prediction and an example of erosion reduction through geometrical modifications with the materials used unchanged.

“…Multilayer paint modeling (MPM) is an inexpensive qualitative visual tool for accurately mapping the erosion location in significantly less time, using the flow loop at high transportation velocities [28,29,30]. The MPM technique is a qualitative tool and cannot yield any quantitative data related to the erosion–corrosion rate of the pipe wall.…”

Erosion–corrosion in flow changing devices as a result of sand transportation is a serious concern in the hydrocarbon and mineral processing industry. In this work, the flow accelerated erosion–corrosion mechanism of 90°, 60°, and 30° long radius horizontal–horizontal (H–H) carbon steel elbows with an inner diameter of 50.8 mm were investigated in an experimental closed-flow loop. For these geometrical configurations, erosion–corrosion was elucidated for erosive slug flow regimes and the extent of material degradation is reported in detail. Qualitative techniques such as multilayer paint modeling and microscopic surface imaging were used to scrutinize the flow accelerated erosion–corrosion mechanism. The 3D roughness characterization of the surface indicates that maximum roughness appears in downstream adjacent to the outlet of the 90° elbow. Microscopic surface imaging of eroded elbow surfaces disseminates the presence of corrosion pits on the exit regions of the 90° and 60° elbows, but erosion scars were formed on the entry regions of the 30° elbow. Surface characterization and mass loss results indicated that changing the elbow geometrical configuration from a small angle to wide angle significantly changed the mechanical wear mechanism of the tested elbows. Moreover, the maximum erosive location was identified at the top of the horizontally-oriented elbow for slug flow.

Development of High-Performance Enamel Coating on Grey Iron by Low-Temperature Sintering

et al. 2018

In this study, we report on a low-temperature sintered enamel coating with a high-strength bonding and wear-resistance that protected a grey cast iron substrate. The SiO2–Al2O3–B2O3 composited prescription for the enamel coating was modified by the partial substitutions of SiO2 for B2O3 and alkali metals for Li2O. The optimized enamel coating was prepared by sintering at a relatively low temperature (730 °C) for seven minutes. Due to the composition of both the amorphous and crystalline phases, the enamel coating presented sufficient hardness and excellent wear resistance. The wear volume loss and the specific wear rate of the enamel coating were obviously lower than that of the metal substrate. The enamel coating can effectively improve the service life of the grey cast iron substrate in a complex frictional environment.
