This paper presents an experimental study on the influence of fiberglass woven in Long Kenaf Polyester Composite (LKPC). Wear and friction characteristics were examined using sea water and sand as a slurry. Wear test were carried out using Slurry Erosion Test Rig (TR-40). These tests were performed at room temperature with speed of 200 rpm for every 2 km interval. The results from the tests show that mass loss were depends on the matrix composition of the composite. Surface Roughness, Ra, was consistently reduced after each test in all cases.

Present work is devoted to investigation of the slurry erosion wear in a 90° elbow by using commercial Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code FLUENT. Discrete phase erosion wear model was used to predict erosion in 90° elbow by solving the governing equations through Euler-Lagrange scheme. Particle tracking was considered by using standard k-ε turbulence scheme for the flow of bottom ash slurry. Erosion wear in elbow was investigated along with velocity distribution and turbulence intensity. The radius-to-diameter (r/D) ratio was taken as 1.5. Results show that erosion rate increases with increase in velocity. Present numerical simulation model holds close agreement with previous studies. Distorted patterns appeared at low velocities. The V-shape pattern appeared on the outer wall of elbow at high velocities. The low velocity region occurs around circumference of elbow wall at outer wall of elbow due to stimulation of the drag forces near the wall region.

The surface material of marine ship hulls suffers degradation by slurry erosion because of the impact of sands or solid particles in seawater. When the ship’s moving speed increases, pressure is changed suddenly and cavitation erosion will occur. Therefore, in the ocean, the corrosion of the surface material of the ship hulls is a combined damage in a slurry erosion and cavitation erosion states. An experimental device, for the combined wear, capable of simulating the above working conditions is designed and manufactured. A combined wear test of various materials (Q235, DH32, and NM360 steels) is conducted. The results show that cutting furrows of the slurry erosion, pinholes of the cavitation erosion, holes of electrochemical corrosion, and their combined effect increase the material wear rates and areas. Ductile materials of high strength have less slurry and cavitation damage, and more corrosion damage. For ductile materials of low strength, slurry and cavitation wear play an important role. When the slurry impact speed is increased, the wear degree of materials is also increased. This experimental setup for the combined wear provides a strong support for the development of wear-resistant materials for ship hulls and the structural optimization of ship hulls.
