Erosion of Mild Steel for Engineering Design and Applications

The erosion characteristics of mild steel have been evaluated for a variety of test parameters using dry compressed air jet test rig under room temperature. Random shaped silica sand (SiO2) is selected to account as erodent size within the range of 300–600 lm. The impact velocity within 30–50 m/s, i...

description The erosion characteristics of mild steel have been evaluated for a variety of test parameters using dry compressed air jet test rig under room temperature. Random shaped silica sand (SiO2) is selected to account as erodent size within the range of 300–600 lm. The impact velocity within 30–50 m/s, impact angle of 15o to 90o, and standoff distance of 15–25 mm were set as the operating test conditions to be maintained in the present study. The extreme level of erosion was obtained at 15o impingement angle, which demonstrates the ductile nature of the examined mild steel. Increasing the impact angle also increases kinetic energy; as a result, erosive wear was increased and standoff distance was reduced. Erosive wear was increased because the flax concentration was increased in all test conditions.
