Description

Pipe wall thinning due to erosion-corrosion raises severe plant and personnel safey. Effective inspection program is required to prevent piping failure caused by erosion-corrosion. Chec Family of Codes developed by EPRI was used to predict erosion-corrosion rates in piping components and to calculate the time remaining before reaching user defined acceptable wall thickness. The rate of wear rate depended on water chemistry and design factors. Erosion-corrosion evaluation by codes is to be useful to utilities
