Computational models for the impact velocity and impact angle in a bend have been successfully applied to the flow field and validated by electrical resistance tomography (ERT) to confirm the position of particle burdens. Particle impact parameters from this work have been used as inputs to erosion models to predict wall wastage rates in a R c /D=1.2 bend and a upstream straight pipe section...
Industries which transport slurries and other particle-laden liquids in pipes expend the equivalent of millions of pounds every year to repair erosion damage caused by solid particle impingement. It is against this background that the perceived relationship between pipeline erosion and imposed swirling flow fields in pipe bends is important. Definitions of flow fields and particle dispersions which...
