Multi Physics Simulation of Liquid Droplet Impingement Erosion

Abstract

Abstract. Pipe wall thinning is one of the most serious problems in a power plant operation. The analysis of pipe wall thinning phenomenon is a critical issue for the safety and to increase the operation rate of power plants. One of the main causes of pipe wall thinning phenomenon of power generation facilities is the liquid droplet impingement erosion (LDIE). It is well known that the LDIE progress is classified into
