In this paper, the quantitative results of erosion of a horizontal-vertical (HV) downward long
radius 90° elbow and horizontal-horizontal (HH) elbow for abrasive annular flow conditions …

Continuous impact of solid particles causes severe pipeline wear, and may result in leakage
in directional change areas such as elbows. Accurate prediction of erosion is essential in the …

A new numerical procedure is proposed to analyse solid particle erosion caused by slurry.
The procedure works involves two mechanisms. First, high-concentration particles are …

The slurry TBM circulation system plays a crucial role in supplying the slurry to the
excavation face and conveying the cut rock particles to the ground. Rock particles in …

In the coal chemical industry, petrochemical industry, and other industries, ball valve is a
common and important valve due to its reliable structure. The conveying medium has …

Elbows are widely used in piping systems to change the direction of flow. However, it is also
extremely susceptible to erosive damage, which may lead to the leakage of petroleum and …

Erosion is one of the most concerning issues in pipeline flow assurance for the Oil & Gas
pipeline industries, which can easily lead to wall thinning, perforation leakage, and other …

Erosive wear due to the fact of sand severely affects hydrocarbon production industries and,
consequently, various sectors of the mineral processing industry. In this study, the effect of …

Due to easy operation, low costs, environmental friendliness, and minimal (little) traffic
disruptions, material transport (delivery) through slurry pipe systems have achieved a lot of …
