An apparatus that analyzes the hydroabrasive wear of fiberglass pipes

Аннотация

A hydroabrasive wear analyzing apparatus has been developed which makes it possible to study wear resistance of various materials and coatings in hydroabrasive flow simulation. The paper shows efficiency of the developed apparatus for testing various materials and coatings being subject to hydroabrasive effect. After a 96-h test, the developed apparatus obtained comparative characteristics of the resistance to hydroabrasive wear of fiberglass pipes with and without polyurethane coating.
