Series on Hydraulic Machinery - Vol. 2

ABRASIVE EROSION AND CORROSION OF HYDRAULIC MACHINERY

edited by C G Duan (International Research Center on Hydraulic Machinery, Beijing, China) & V Y Karelin (Moscow State University of Civil Engineering, Russia)

This book gives a systematic exposition of abrasive erosion and corrosion of hydraulic machinery in both theory and engineering practice, and is the first comprehensive volume to cover this area in depth.

All the important subjects are discussed including fundamentals, calculation, analysis and numerical simulation of liquid–solid flow design, erosion-resistant materials, interaction between cavitation and abrasive erosion, and corrosion of hydraulic machinery.


Contents:

  • Fundamentals of Hydroabrasive Erosion Theory (V Y Karelin et al.)
  • Calculation of Hydraulic Abrasion (V Y Karelin et al.)
  • Analysis and Numerical Simulation of Liquid–Solid Two-Phase Flow (Y L Wu)
  • Design of Hydraulic Machinery Working in Sand Laden Water (H Brekke et al.)
  • Erosion-Resistant Materials (M Matsumura & B E Chen)
  • Interaction between Cavitation and Abrasive Erosion Processes (V Y Karelin et al.)
  • Corrosion of Hydraulic Machinery (M Matsumura)


Readership: Upper level undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, academics and industrialists in mechanical, civil and electrical & electronic engineering.
