Study on Erosive-Corrosive Wear Characteristics of Ball Valve under Gas-Liquid-Solid Multiphase Flow
The particle erosion wear and electrochemical corrosion of multi-phase flow ball valve were studied numerically.Aiming at the problem of ball valve erosion and corrosion caused by solid particles carried by dilute sulfuric acid,Euler-Lagrange fluid calcula-tion method was adopted to conduct numerical simulation of erosion and corrosion wear of gas-solid-liquid three-phase flow ball valve by using Fluent software,revealing the failure mechanism of valve erosion and corrosion.The simulation results were compared with ex-isting literature experimental data and the erosion ball valve on the engineering site.The accuracy of numerical calculation results is ver-ified.The analysis results show that:the flow rate in the ball valve varies from 2 m/s to 9 m/s,the maximum erosion amount in the valve is 2.85×10-3 kg/(m2·s),and the maximum corrosion rate is 2.28×10-7 kmol/(m2·s).The erosion wear in the valve decreases with the increase of the opening degree.The influence of gas phase on the erosion of the ball valve is slight,but the complex eddy current in the valve core slows down the corrosion rate of the inner wall of the valve core.The interaction between particle erosion and electrochem-ical corrosion will accelerate the failure of ball valve surface coating.
