Water Droplet Impingement Erosion: Testing, Mechanisms and Improved Representation


Abstract eng:
Water Droplet Impingement Erosion (WDIE) is a result of liquid/solid interaction at high speeds (sub/supersonic speeds). Extensive research is carried out at the TMG lab at Concordia University to further understand this phenomenon. It is of great concern to the power generation and aerospace industries and leads to failure of multiple airplanes components, when flying in the rain, steam turbine blades, and gas turbine compressor blades. In this article, WDIE mechanisms of Martensitic 12% Cr stainless steel, TiAl4V and TiAl, widely used alloys in the power generation and aerospace fields, are discussed. In addition, a unified energy intensity method to represent WDIE results is presented.
