Modelling impact angle effects on erosion-corrosion of pure metals: Construction of materials performance maps

The results were used to generate erosion-corrosion mechanism maps showing the differences in the impact angle effects at various pHs for the pure metals. The changes in wastage regime for the various pure metals as a function of impact angle and pH were demonstrated. Materials performance maps were generated using such models showing how wastage rates may be optimised for exposure to impact angle, pH and electrochemical potential.
