Erosion-corrosion of stainless steel, brass and aluminum was studied under impingement by a fluid jet. Submerged fluid jet was selected since it closely simulates fluid flow in process industries.
OCP measurements were made for the study. Shape of OCP transient showed the severity of attack on metal/alloy by the environment. Results obtained through OCP measurements also agree with those obtained by weight loss measurements. It is a simple and cheap technique and can be used as a tool for on-line monitoring of corrosion.
