... the solid particle erosion on the symmetry plane of elbows for annular flow. This model is a sort of generalized erosion prediction procedure, which resolves the erosion process into the description of the flow field velocity profile, particle motion rules, and penetration calculation. The 1/7th power law...

... September 12, 2013. Assoc. Editor: Sarma V. Pisupati. 12 10 2012 09 06 2013 Erosion measurements in multiphase slug and annular flow regimes have been made in a horizontal 76.2 mm (3-in.) diameter pipe. These flow regimes are selected since they produce higher metal losses than other...

... that demonstrate pipe orientation can have a significant impact on the amount of erosion for annular flow. A semimechanistic model to predict erosion in annular flow is also outlined that accounts for the upstream flow orientation. Erosion experiments were performed by Santos using aluminium specimens...
